Parameters: argv0 - Same as passed to main() as argv[0]
Returns: (nothing)
This function modifies the argv0 pointer to eliminate any leading
pathname (directory) components from the program name, leaving just the
basename of the program. It also saves a copy that can be accessed via
the program_name global variable.

Function: home_directory - Return home directory pathname
Parameters: (none)
Returns: const char * - Pointer to home directory
This function returns the full pathname to the user's home directory,

returned if the home directory cannot be determined.

Function: data_directory - Return writable data directory pathname

this path is NOT created by this function, nor is the writability of
this path checked. NULL is returned if this path cannot be determined.

This function closes all Curses windows, prints the name of the program

as if passed to printf()) and exits with error code EXIT_FAILURE.
The format supplied does NOT need to supply the program name nor the
trailing end-line character. The format should not be NULL; user-

itself.

Returns: (does not return)
This function closes all Curses windows, prints the name of the
program, the supplied error message (using format and following
arguments as if passed to printf()), then the string corresponding to
errno to stderr. It then exits with error code EXIT_FAILURE.
The format supplied does NOT need to supply the program name, any

Parameters: buf - Buffer to receive result

This function calls strfmon() to convert val to a suitable monetary
value string. If the POSIX or C locale is in effect, and "!" does NOT
appear in the format, "$" is inserted into the resulting string. This

Function: scramble - Scramble (encrypt) the buffer
Parameters: dest - Pointer to output buffer

size - Size of output buffer
key - Pointer to encryption/decryption key
Returns: char * - Pointer to output buffer
This function scrambles (encrypts) the buffer *src and places the
result in *dest. It uses *key to keep a running encryption key. If
the key is NULL, no encryption is performed.
The input buffer should contain a C-style string terminated by '\0'.
The output buffer will be terminated with '\n\0', even if the input
does not have a terminating '\n'. The pointer dest is returned as the
output.
Note that src and dest MUST point to different buffers, and that *dest
typically must be twice as large as *src. In addition, *key MUST be
initialised to zero before calling scramble() for the first time.

Parameters: dest - Pointer to output buffer

size - Size of output buffer
key - Pointer to encryption/decryption key
Returns: char * - Pointer to output buffer or NULL on error
This function does the reverse of scramble(): it unscrambles (decrypts)
the buffer *src and places the result in *dest. If key is NULL, no
decryption takes place: the input buffer is copied to the output buffer
without changes.
The buffer should contain a C-style string terminated by '\0'. Note
that src and dest MUST point to different buffers. The pointer dest is
returned as the output, unless there is an error in the data (such as a
corrupted checksum), in which case NULL is returned.

terminates with an "Out of memory" error.

len - Size of dest, in multiples of wchar_t
Returns: size_t - Number of characters placed in dest (excluding NUL)
This wrapper function converts a multibyte string to a wide-character
one by calling mbsrtowcs() continually until the whole string is
converted. If any illegal sequences are present, they are converted to
the EILSEQ_REPL character. If the destination buffer is too small, the

wc - Character to convert
mbstate - Pointer to current multibyte shift state
Returns: size_t - Number of characters placed in dest
This wrapper function converts the wide character in wc (which may be
NUL) by calling wcrtomb(). If wc cannot be represented in the current
locale, EILSEQ_REPL is used instead (with any characters needed to move
to an initial shift state prior to EILSEQ_REPL).
