MAKEZLUNAME (3X)

	MAKEZLUNAME (3X)
NAME	makezluname – Make a ZLU name with TTY name suffix
SYNOPSIS	#include <zcom/zcomsys.h>
	#include <zcom/zcomcall.h> /* if compiled with ANSI C (recommended)
	*/
	char *makezluname (name)
	char *name;
DESCRIPTION	Routine makezluname constructs a ZLU name by merging the
	user-supplied name with the TTY suffix. The returned name is 7
	characters long plus a terminating ’\0’. This name may be provided in a
	call to zopen to open or create a program ZLU with a name that is
	associated with the TTY of the calling process. Note that the zopen call
	assigns a label (name) to each program ZLU and does allow two program
	ZLUs to be created with the same name. This allows a program to be run
	from different terminals without referring to the same program ZLU.
	This routine calls ttyname to retrieve the TTY name of the current
	process. From the returned TTY name, the prefix “tty” is stripped and
	then appended to the user-supplied name to form a ZLU name. Note that
	part of the user-supplied name and TTY name may be truncated to
	ensure that the returned ZLU name fits in an 8-byte buffer.
	For example, if the specified name is “MYZLU”, the following shows the
	returned ZLU name for different terminals.
	TTY	Returned	Comment
	Name	Name
	tty01	MYZLU01	Only TTY suffix is used.
	tty0p1	MYZL0p1	“U” is dropped to fix TTY suffix.
	tty04p12	MY04p12	Maximum of 5 characters from TTY
			suffix.
	tty04p12i	MY4p12i	Only 5 of 6 characters from TTY suffix.
	term	MYZterm	Full TTY name is used.
