+The lseek system call changes the current position of the file, allowing
+to read or write in that position. Seeking on a device may have many
+different meanings.

+off\_t lseek (int fd, off\_t pos, int whence);
+</para>
+<para>
+The meaning of the position depends on the value of whence, which can be
+SEEK\_SET (the absolute position), SEEK\_CUR (relative to the current
+position), SEEK\_END (relative to the end of the file).
