NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     endpick - turns off picking mode

C SPECIFICATION    [Toc]    [Back]

     long endpick(buffer)
     short buffer[];

PARAMETERS    [Toc]    [Back]

     buffer   expects a	buffer into which to append the	contents of the	name
	      stack when a drawing routine draws in the	picking	region.	Before
	      writing the contents of the name stack, the system appends the
	      number of	entries	it is about to append.	Thus, if the name
	      stack contains the values, 5, 9, and 17; then endpick appends
	      the values, 3, 5,	9,  and	17, to buffer.

	      Because more than	one drawing routine may	have written in	the
	      picking region, it is possible for buffer	to contain a number of
	      readings from the	name stack.

FUNCTION RETURN	VALUE
     The returned value	for the	function is the	number of times	endpick	wrote
     the names stack to	buffer.

     If	the returned function value is negative, then the buffer was too small
     to	contain	all the	readings from the name stack.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     endpick turns off picking mode and	writes the hits	to a buffer.
