+.SH NAME
+fblocked \- Test whether the last input operation exhausted all available input
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBfblocked \fIchannelId\fR
+.BE
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+The \fBfblocked\fR command returns 1 if the most recent input operation
+on \fIchannelId\fR returned less information than requested because all
+available input was exhausted.
+For example, if \fBgets\fR is invoked when there are only three
+characters available for input and no end-of-line sequence, \fBgets\fR
+returns an empty string and a subsequent call to \fBfblocked\fR will
+return 1.
