       upscli_fd - Get file descriptor for connection

SYNOPSIS

       #include <upsclient.h>

       int upscli_fd(UPSCONN *ups);

DESCRIPTION

       The  upscli_fd()  function  takes  the  pointer  ups to a UPSCONN state
       structure and returns  the  value  of  the  file  descriptor  for  that
       connection, if any.

       This  may  be  useful  for determining if the connection to upsd(8) has
       been lost.
