NAME
       DtActionDescription — obtain the descriptive text for a given action

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Dt/Action.h>
       char *DtActionDescription(
       char *actionName);

DESCRIPTION
       The  DtActionDescription	 function looks up and returns the descriptive
       text associated with the actionName action.  The actionName argument is
       the  name of the action.	 If there are multiple actionName actions, the
       string returned is the description of the most general.	The most  gen‐
       eral  action  is	 the  one  with the lowest precedence, as described in
       dtactionfile(4) (``Action Selection'').

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, the DtActionDescription function returns  a
       newly  allocated	 copy  of  the	description string associated with the
       action; otherwise, it returns NULL.

APPLICATION USAGE
       The DtActionDescription function is useful for applications  that  wish
       to present information to the user about a particular action.

       The  application	 should	 use  XtFree(3) to free the description string
       returned by DtActionDescription.
