SYNOPSYS
       #include "mut.h"
       char *nameindex(s, i)
       char *s;
       long i;

PARAMETERS
       s		   Pointer to a string

       t		   Long integer

DESCRIPTION
       The nameindex function adds the separator defined by MBK_SEPAR(1), and then the string version of i at the end of string s.   This  is  not
       like a strcat(3) of the standard library, because s is not beeing modified.
       The string returned has already been put in the names dictionary by a call to namealloc(3).

RETURN VALUE
       nameindex returns a pointer to a string in the name hash table.

EXAMPLE
       #include "mut.h"
       #include "mlo.h"
       void a_sig_name(ptsig)
       losig_list *ptsig;
       {
	  return pt->NAMECHAIN ? (char *)(pt->NAMECHAIN->DATA)
		   : nameindex("mbk_sig", pt->INDEX);
       }
