9'\"
10'\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk
11'\" manual entries.
12'\"
13'\" .AP type name in/out ?indent?
14'\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure.
15'\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out",
16'\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg,
17'\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be
18'\" needed; use .AS below instead)
19'\"
20'\" .AS ?type? ?name?
21'\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and
22'\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed
23'\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used.
24'\"
25'\" .BS
26'\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be
27'\" enclosed in one large box.
28'\"
29'\" .BE
30'\" End of box enclosure.
31'\"
32'\" .CS
33'\" Begin code excerpt.
34'\"
35'\" .CE
36'\" End code excerpt.
37'\"
38'\" .VS ?version? ?br?
39'\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts
40'\" of man pages. The first argument is ignored and used for recording
41'\" the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be
42'\" found and removed when they reach a certain age. If another argument
43'\" is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar.
44'\"
45'\" .VE
46'\" End of vertical sidebar.
47'\"
48'\" .DS
49'\" Begin an indented unfilled display.
50'\"
51'\" .DE
52'\" End of indented unfilled display.
53'\"
54'\" .SO
55'\" Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget. The
56'\" options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated
57'\" by tabs.
58'\"
59'\" .SE
60'\" End of list of standard options for a Tk widget.
61'\"
62'\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass
63'\" Start of description of a specific option. cmdName gives the
64'\" option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives
65'\" the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives
66'\" the option's class in the option database.
67'\"
68'\" .UL arg1 arg2
69'\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally.

248.SH NAME
249Tcl_TranslateFileName \- convert file name to native form and replace tilde with home directory
250.SH SYNOPSIS
251.nf
252\fB#include <tcl.h>\fR
253.sp
254char *
255\fBTcl_TranslateFileName\fR(\fIinterp\fR, \fIname\fR, \fIbufferPtr\fR)
256.SH ARGUMENTS
257.AS Tcl_DString *bufferPtr
258.AP Tcl_Interp *interp in
259Interpreter in which to report an error, if any.
260.AP "CONST char" *name in
261File name, which may start with a ``~''.
262.AP Tcl_DString *bufferPtr in/out
263If needed, this dynamic string is used to store the new file name.
264At the time of the call it should be uninitialized or free. The
265caller must eventually call \fBTcl_DStringFree\fR to free up
266anything stored here.
267.BE
268
269.SH DESCRIPTION
270.PP
271This utility procedure translates a file name to a form suitable for
272passing to the local operating system. It converts network names into
273native form and does tilde substitution.
274.PP
275If
276\fBTcl_TranslateFileName\fR has to do tilde substitution or translate
277the name then it uses
278the dynamic string at \fI*bufferPtr\fR to hold the new string it
279generates.
280After \fBTcl_TranslateFileName\fR returns a non-NULL result, the caller must
281eventually invoke \fBTcl_DStringFree\fR to free any information
282placed in \fI*bufferPtr\fR. The caller need not know whether or
283not \fBTcl_TranslateFileName\fR actually used the string; \fBTcl_TranslateFileName\fR
284initializes \fI*bufferPtr\fR even if it doesn't use it, so the call to
285\fBTcl_DStringFree\fR will be safe in either case.
286.PP
287If an error occurs (e.g. because there was no user by the given
288name) then NULL is returned and an error message will be left
289in the interpreter's result.
290When an error occurs, \fBTcl_TranslateFileName\fR
291frees the dynamic string itself so that the caller need not call
292\fBTcl_DStringFree\fR.
293.PP
294The caller is responsible for making sure that the interpreter's result
295has its default empty value when \fBTcl_TranslateFileName\fR is invoked.
