CUSERID(3S)                                           CUSERID(3S)



     NAME
          cuserid - get character login name of the user

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <stdio.h>

          char *cuserid (s)
          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.

     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].
