116 These are miscellaneous functions which may be useful with the Cdk wid‐

118
120 Beep makes an audible beep. The standard curses beep() does not flush
121 the stream, so it will only beep until a force is made. This
122 forces a flush after issuing the beep command.
123
124 CDKallocStrings
125 Add a new string item to a list. Keep a null pointer on the end
126 so one may use CDKfreeStrings() to deallocate the whole list. The
127 caller is responsible for updating the length of the list. The
128 return value is the updated number of chars used.
129
130 CDKcountStrings
131 Count the number of items in a null-terminated list of character
132 strings. Return the count.
133
134 CDKfreeChtypes
135 Free a list of chtype-strings which is terminated by a null
136 pointer.
137
138 CDKfreeStrings
139 Free a list of character strings which is terminated by a null
140 pointer. Also free list itself.
141
142 CDKsplitString
143 split the string at each occurrence of separator, returning a
144 pointer to a dynamically allocated array of the pieces. The orig‐
145 inal string is unmodified. The caller is responsible for freeing
146 the result.
147
148 baseName
149 returns a pointer to the first character of the filename in the
150 given pathname. The result should be freed by the caller.
151
152 ceilCDK
153 Return an integer like the math library ceil(), which returns a
154 double.
155
156 chlen
157 returns the length of the (null-terminated) string of chtype's.
158
159 chstrncpy
160 Extract the characters from a null-terminated array of chtype's
161 src. The size of the destination dest is given in maxcount.
162
163 chtype2Char
164 Extract the characters from a null-terminated array of chtype's
165 string. A dynamically allocated string is returned. The caller
166 is responsible for freeing the result.
167
168 cleanChar
169 is analogous to memset. Set the characters in string to the given
170 character. The length of string is given by length. character
171 which will be written.
172
173 cleanChtype
174 is analogous to memset. Set the chtype's in string to the given
175 character. The length of string is given by length.
176
177 cmpStrChstr
178 Compare a char string str to a chtype string chstr. Return -1, 0
179 or 1 according to whether str is less than, equal to to greater
180 than chstr.
181
182 copyChar
183 copies the string passed in. Unlike strdup this checks to see if
184 the string is NULL before copying.
185
186 copyCharList
187 copies the given list.
188
189 copyChtype
190 function copies the string passed in, analogous to copyChar, but
191 for chtype strings.
192
193 copyChtypeList
194 copies the given list.
195
196 dirName
197 Returns the directory for the given filename, i.e., the part
198 before the * last slash. The return value should be freed by the
199 caller.
200
201 floorCDK
202 Return an integer like the math function floor(), which returns a
203 double.
204
205 freeChar
206 is a wrapper for free. It checks to see if the string is NULL
207 before trying to free the string.
208
209 freeCharList
210 Free the memory used by the given list of strings. The number of
211 strings to free is given by size.
212
213 freeChtype
214 is a wrapper for free, like freeChar.
215
216 freeChtypeList
217 Free the memory used by the given list of chtype strings. The
218 number of strings to free is given by size.
219
220 intlen
221 returns the length of an integer, i.e., the number of characters
222 needed to represent it.
223
224 lenCharList
225 returns the length of the given list.
226
227 lenChtypeList
228 returns the length of the given list.
229
230 mode2Char
231 Given a file protection mode fileMode, store a printable version
232 of the permissions in string, formatted as if by "ls -l"). Return
233 the corresponding permissions data, i.e., ignoring the file-type
234 bits.
235
236 searchList
237 Search the given list of listSize strings for a subset of a word
238 pattern in the given list. Return the index in the list if it is
239 found, or -1 if not found.
240
241 sortList
242 performs a quick sort of the given list. This is a wrapper for
243 qsort, used to sort the list of strings. The number of strings in
244 list is given by length. The list is sorted alphabetically in
245 increasing order.
