NAME
       ERRloadstrings, ERRPACK, ERRgetnexterrorlibrary - load arbitrary
       error strings

SYNOPSIS
        #include 

        void ERRloadstrings(int lib, ERRSTRINGDATA str[]);

        int ERRgetnexterrorlibrary(void);

        unsigned long ERRPACK(int lib, int func, int reason);

DESCRIPTION
       ERRloadstrings() registers error strings for library number lliibb.

       ssttrr is an array of error string data:

        typedef struct ERRstringdatast
        {
               unsigned long error;
               char *string;
        } ERRSTRINGDATA;

       The error code is generated from the library number and a function and
       reason code: eerrrroorr = ERRPACK(lliibb, ffuunncc, rreeaassoonn).  ERRPACK() is a
       macro.

       The last entry in the array is {0,0}.

       ERRgetnexterrorlibrary() can be used to assign library numbers to
       user libraries at runtime.

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       ERRloadstrings() returns no value. ERRPACK() return the error code.
       ERRgetnexterrorlibrary() returns a new library number.
