.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP
The \fBne_buffer_append\fR and \fBne_buffer_zappend\fR functions append a string to the end of a buffer; extending the buffer as necessary\&. The \fIlen\fR passed to \fBne_buffer_append\fR specifies the length of the string to append; there must be no NUL terminator in the first \fIlen\fR bytes of the string\&. \fBne_buffer_zappend\fR must be passed a NUL\-terminated string\&.

.PP
The \fBne_buffer_concat\fR function takes a variable\-length argument list following \fIstr\fR; each argument must be a \fBchar *\fR pointer to a NUL\-terminated string\&. A NULL pointer must be given as the last argument to mark the end of the list\&. The strings (including \fIstr\fR) are appended to the buffer in the order given\&. None of the strings passed to \fBne_buffer_concat\fR are modified\&.

.SH "EXAMPLES"

.PP
The following code will output "Hello, world\&. And goodbye\&."\&.

.nf
ne_buffer *buf = ne_buffer_create();
ne_buffer_zappend(buf, "Hello");
ne_buffer_concat(buf, ", world\&. ", "And ", "goodbye\&.", NULL);
puts(buf\->data);
ne_buffer_destroy(buf);
.fi
