tttk_op_string(3)
CDE


NAME
  tttk_op_string - map a ToolTalk op code to a string

SYNOPSIS
  #include <Tt/tttk.h>
  char *tttk_op_string(Tttk_op opcode);

DESCRIPTION
  The tttk_op_string function returns a string containing the op for opcode.

RETURN VALUE
  Upon successful completion, the tttk_op_string function returns a string
  that can be freed using tt_free3; otherwise, it returns NULL.

APPLICATION USAGE
  The distinctions in the Tttk_op enumerated type are for programmer
  convenience, and elements of Tttk_op do not necessarily map one-to-one with
  op strings, since ToolTalk allows ops to be overloaded.  For example,
  TTME_EDIT and TTME_COMPOSE are overloaded on the same op (Edit), and the
  messages only vary by the Tt_mode of the first argument.

SEE ALSO
  Tt/tttk.h5, tt_message_op3, tt_free3.
