cuserid(3S)         (C Programming Language Utilities)          cuserid(3S)


   NAME
         cuserid - get character login name of the user

   SYNOPSIS
         #include <stdio.h>

         char *cuserid (char *s);

   DESCRIPTION
         cuserid generates a character-string representation of the login name
         that the owner of the current process is logged in under.  If s is a
         NULL pointer, this representation is generated in an internal static
         area, the address of which is returned.  Otherwise, s is assumed to
         point to an array of at least Lcuserid characters; the
         representation is left in this array.  The constant Lcuserid is
         defined in the stdio.h header file.

   SEE ALSO
         getlogin(3C), getpwent(3C).

   DIAGNOSTICS
         If the login name cannot be found, cuserid returns a NULL pointer; if
         s is not a NULL pointer, a null character `\0' will be placed at
         s[0].
