/sys$common/syshlp/helplib.hlb RTL Routines, LIB$, LIB$GET_COMMON  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    The Get String from Common routine copies a string in the common
    area to the destination string. (The common area is an area of
    storage that remains defined across multiple image activations in
    a process.) The string length is taken from the first longword of
    the common area.
