.SH NAME
append_filename \- Concatenates a filename to a path. Allegro game programming library.\&
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <allegro.h>

.sp
.B char *append_filename(char *dest, const char *path, 
.B const char *filename, int size);
.SH 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:

.nf
   append_filename(buf, "/home/user",
                   "prog.bin", sizeof(buf));
.fi
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
Returns a copy of the `dest' parameter.
