ustrerror

Returns a string describing errno.

Description

const char *ustrerror(int err);
This function returns a string that describes the error code `err', which normally comes from the variable `errno'. Example:
      PACKFILE *input_file = pack_fopen("badname", "r");
      if (input_file == NULL)
	 allegro_message("%s\nSorry!\n", ustrerror(errno));
Returns a pointer to a static string that should not be modified or freed. If you make subsequent calls to ustrerror(), the string will be overwritten.
