XrmUniqueQuark()														  XrmUniqueQuark()

Name
  XrmUniqueQuark - allocate a new quark.

Synopsis
  XrmQuark XrmUniqueQuark( )

Returns
  The quark.

Description
  XrmUniqueQuark()  allocates  a quark that is guaranteed not to represent any existing string.  For most applications, XrmStringToQuark() is
  more useful, as it binds a quark to a string.  However, on some occasions, you may want to allocate a quark that has no string equivalent.

  The shorthand name for a string is called a quark and is the type XrmQuark.  Quarks are used to improve performance of  the  resource  man-
  ager,  which	must  make  many string comparisons.  Quarks are presently represented as integers.  Simple comparisons of quarks can be per-
  formed rather than lengthy string comparisons.

  A quark is to a string what an atom is to a property name in the server, but its use is entirely local to your application.
