TAB 3
NAME
tab - simple table lookup routines
SYNOPSIS
.L "#include <ast.h>" .L "int tabindex(const void* tab, int size, const char* name);" .L "void* tablook(const void* tab, int size, const char* name);"
DESCRIPTION
These routines do linear lookups in small tables (on the order of 32 elements). Each table element has a size of .L size bytes and the beginning of the element points to a name that is matched by the lookup routines.

.L tabindex returns the index of the table element in .L tab that matches .LR name . If there is no match then .L -1 is returned.

.L tablook returns a pointer to the table element in .L tab that matches .LR name . If there is no match then .L 0 is returned.
