NAME
       ustrerror - Returns a string describing errno. Allegro game programming library.


SYNOPSIS
       #include <allegro.h>

       const char *ustrerror(int err);


DESCRIPTION
       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));


RETURN VALUE
       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.
