/* 
   This program writes contents of file descriptor fdin onto the contents
   of file descriptor fdout and then adjusts the size of fdout to be the
   size of fdin.  If it is passed two parameters, the first is the file
   name for fdin and the second is the file name for fdout.  If it is
   passed one parameter, then fdin is standard input and the one parameter
   is the file name for fdout.

   Note: code uses BSD/SunOS functions ftruncate.  This is crucial to
         its usefulness.  If someone knows a POSIX/V7 equiv, I would
         be interested in hearing of it. [Am posting question to 
         comp.unix.wizards, so any discussion would be best there.]
