SYNOPSYS
       #include "mlo.h"
       int guessextdir(ptfig)
       lofig_list *ptfig;

PARAMETER
       ptfig		   Pointer to a lofig_list

DESCRIPTION
       The guessextdir function guesses external connectors directions from internal connectors' ones.	The translation table below indicates  the
       resulting direction for two internals connectors.
		IN	OUT	 INOUT	UNKNOWN  TRISTATE TRANSCV
       IN	IN	INOUT	 INOUT	IN	 TRANSCV  TRANSCV
       OUT	INOUT	OUT+	 INOUT+ OUT	 OUT+	  TRANSCV+
       INOUT	INOUT	INOUT+	 INOUT+ INOUT	 INOUT+   INOUT+
       UNKNOWN	IN	OUT	 INOUT	UNKNOWN  TRISTATE TRANSCV
       TRISTATE TRANSCV OUT+	 INOUT+ TRISTATE TRISTATE TRANSCV
       TRANSCV	TRANSCV TRANSCV+ INOUT+ TRANSCV  TRANSCV  TRANSCV

RETURN VALUE
       guessextdir returns 1 on success, 0 if there is an error in the translation.

ERROR
       The values followed by a + character in the translation table indicate an error.

EXAMPLE
       #include "mut.h"
       #include "mlo.h"
       lofig_list * getgoodlofig(figname, mode)
       char *figname;
       char mode;
       {
       lofig_list *ptfig;
	  ptfig = getlofig(figname, mode);
	  restorealldir(ptfig);
	  guessextdir(ptfig);
	  return ptfig;
       }
