Header File Conventions
A strict naming and numbering convention has been applied to header files. The convention consists of a prefix to identify the area, an underline character, and a number to indicate the application of the file. The standard prefixes used are listed in Table 1.2.
The numbers indicating file application are:
Number 1 for definitions and data structures.
Number 2 for prototype definitions for basic functions in the application area.
Number 3 for special applications. For most calendar applications, this header contains prototypes for special application functions.
