/* NAME
/*	fullname 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	lookup personal name of invoking user
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <fullname.h>
/*
/*	const char *fullname()
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	fullname() looks up the personal name of the invoking user.
/*	The result is volatile. Make a copy if it is to be used for
/*	an appreciable amount of time.
/*
/*	On UNIX systems, fullname() first tries to use the NAME environment
/*	variable, provided that the environment can be trusted.
/*	If that fails, fullname() extracts the username from the GECOS
/*	field of the user's password-file entry, replacing any occurrence
/*	of "&" by the login name, first letter capitalized.
/*
/*	A null result means that no full name information was found.
/* SEE ALSO
/*	safe_getenv(3) safe getenv() interface
/* LICENSE
/* .ad
/* .fi
/*	The Secure Mailer license must be distributed with this software.
