catgets(3C)catgets(3C)NAMEcatgets - read a program message
SYNOPSIS
#include <nl_types.h>
char *catgets (nl_catd catd, int set_num, int msg_num,
const char *s);
DESCRIPTIONcatgets attempts to read message msg_num, in set set_num, from the
message catalogue identified by catd. catd is a catalogue descriptor
returned from an earlier call to catopen. s points to a default message
string which will be returned by catgets if the identified message
catalogue is not currently available.
SEE ALSOcatopen(3C).
DIAGNOSTICS
If the identified message is retrieved successfully, catgets returns a
pointer to an internal buffer area containing the null-terminated message
string. If the call is unsuccessful because the message catalogue
identified by catd is not currently available, a pointer to s is
returned.
