NAME
DtActionLabel -- get the localizable label string for an action
SYNOPSIS
#include <Dt/Action.h>
char *DtActionLabel(
char *actionName);
DESCRIPTION
The DtActionLabel function provides access to the localizable label string associated with an action named actionName. The actionName argu-
ment is the name of the action. The localizable label string is the string that all components should display to identify the action. If
the action definition does not specify a label string, the action name itself is returned.
The label string associated with an action is localizable, but the action name is not.
If there are multiple actionName actions, the label string returned is the label associated with the most general action. The most general
action is the one with the lowest precedence, as described in dtactionfile(4) (``Action Selection'').
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the DtActionLabel function returns a newly allocated copy of the localizable label string associated with the
action if an action named actionName is found; otherwise, it returns NULL. It is up to the caller to free the memory associated with this
new copy of the label. The default value for an action label is the action name itself.
APPLICATION USAGE
All applications displaying action names should use the action label to identify an action.

action; otherwise, it returns NULL.
