NAME
       alliancebanner -	display	the standardized Alliance banner

SYNOPSIS
       #include	"mut.h"
       void alliancebanner(tool, tv, comment, date, av)
       char *tool, *tv,	*comment, *date, *av;

PARAMETERS
       tool		   Name	 of  the tool.	This is	what will be displayed
			   as banner.

       tv		   Tool	version.

       comment		   Indicates the tool's	usefulness.

       date		   Copyright dates.

DESCRIPTION
       alliancebanner outputs on stdout	a standardized banner with the name of
       the tool	in large letters, and a	cartouche containing some  information
       about  the Alliance CAD system.	This function is to be used by all the
       Alliance	tools, and expect a display 80 columns wide.

EXAMPLE
       #include	"ba315n.h"
       #define nfloptitle(name)	\
	       alliancebanner("nFloP", VERSION,\
			      "not a FloorPlan router",	"92, 93",\
			      ALLIANCE_VERSION)

SEE ALSO
       alliance(1).

DIAGNOSTICS
       alliancebanner: Error: Resulting	size bigger than 80  columns  not  al-
       lowed
	      The  tool	 argument  must	 be such that its resulting size isn't
	      wider that 80 culumns.  This means, since	the character  set  is
	      proportional,  that  the	longest	 name  to be output is about 8
	      characters long.
       alliancebanner: Error: Character	out of [0-9A-Za-z] range
	      The tool parameter has a non allowed character in	it.  For  sim-
	      plicity purposes,	only numbers and letters are accepted.
