XrmNameToString()					     XrmNameToString()

Name
  XrmNameToString – convert a quark to a string.

Synopsis
  #define XrmNameToString(name) XrmQuarkToString(name)
  char *XrmQuarkToString(quark)
	    XrmQuark quark;

Arguments
  quark	    Specifies  the  quark  for	which  the  equivalent	string is
	    desired.

Returns
  The string.

Description
  XrmNameToString is an alias for  XrmQuarkToString().	 It  returns  the
  string  for which the specified quark is serving as a shorthand symbol.
  The quark was determined earlier using XrmStringToQuark  or  XrmString‐
  ToName().   The string pointed to by the return value must not be modi‐
  fied or freed, because that string is in the data structure used by the
  resource  manager  for  assigning quarks.  If no string exists for that
  quark, XrmNameToString returns NULL.

  Since the resource manager needs to make many	 comparisons  of  strings
  when	it  gets  data from the database, it is more efficient to convert
  these strings into quarks, and to compare quarks instead.  Since quarks
  are represented by integers, comparing quarks is trivial.

  For more information, see Volume One, Chapter 13, Managing User Prefer‐
  ences.

Structures
     typedef int XrmQuark;
