NAME

       append_filename - Concatenates a filename to a path. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       char *append_filename(char *dest, const char *path, const char *filename, int size);

DESCRIPTION

       Concatenates the specified filename onto the end of the specified path, storing at most `size' bytes into
       the `dest' buffer. If `path' doesn't have a trailing path separator, the  function  will  append  one  if
       needed.   You can use the same buffer both as input and output because Allegro internally works on a copy
       of the input before touching `dest'. Example:

          append_filename(buf, "/home/user",
                          "prog.bin", sizeof(buf));

RETURN VALUE

       Returns a copy of the `dest' parameter.
