SYNOPSIS

#include <portnls.h>

void nlappend(

DESCRIPTION

nlappend() replaces the first three blanks found in filename with the language number.  Its purpose is to identify the language of a file in an operating system-independent manner. 

Arguments to nlappend() are used as follows:

filename A string of up to eight ASCII characters terminated by three blanks. 

langid A short integer specifying the language ID. 

err The first element contains the error number.  The second element is always zero.  If the call is successful, both elements contain zero. 

Error # Meaning

2 Specified language is not configured. 

4 Filename is not terminated by 3 blanks.
