       af_note - read and modify note attribute

SYNOPSIS

       #include <atfs.h>

       in     af_snote (Af_key *aso, char *buf)

       char  *af_rnote (Af_key *aso)

DESCRIPTION

       af_snote  sets  the given text (in buf) as change note of the specified
       ASO. Text must be null  terminated.   af_snote  requires  a  lock  (see
       af_lock(3)) set on the specified ASO.

       Af_rnote  returns a pointer to the note attribute of the specified ASO.
       The note text is  returned  in  memory  allocated  by  malloc(3).   Use
       free(3) to make the space available for further allocation.

       returned and af_errno is set to the corresponding error number.
