PARAMETERS

DESCRIPTION

       function, but may evolve to a special  allocator  in  the  future.  Its  use  is  strongly
       encouraged.

RETURN VALUE

EXAMPLE

       #include "aut101.h"
         char ∗Pointer;
         Pointer = autallocblock( 1024 );
         ...
         autfreeblock( Pointer );
