The _errnum_ is a regula= r errno, +defined in errno.h, or a tep error number. The string, describing this err= or number=20 +is copied in the _buf_ argument. The _buflen_ argument is the size of the = _buf_. + +RETURN VALUE +------------ +The _tep_strerror()_ function returns 0, if a valid _errnum_ is passed and= the=20 +string is copied into _buf_.
