 NAME
      Tk_GetJoinStyle, Tk_NameOfJoinStyle - translate  between  strings  and
      join styles

 SYNOPSIS
      #include <tk.h>

      int
      Tk_GetJoinStyle(interp, string, joinPtr)

      char *
      Tk_NameOfJoinStyle(join)

 ARGUMENTS
      Tcl_Interp   *interp    (in)       Interpreter  to   use   for   error
                                        reporting.

      char         *string    (in)       String  containing  name  of   join
                                        style:  one of ``bevel'', ``miter'',
                                        or ``round''.

      int          *joinPtr   (out)     Pointer  to  location  in  which  to
                                        store  X join style corresponding to
                                        string.

      int          join       (in)       Join  style:  one   of   JoinBevel,
                                        JoinMiter, JoinRound.

 DESCRIPTION
      Tk_GetJoinStyle places in *joinPtr the X join style  corresponding  to
      string, which will be one of JoinBevel, JoinMiter, or JoinRound.  Join
      styles are typically used in  X  graphics  contexts  to  indicate  how
      adjacent   line  segments  should  be  joined  together.   See  the  X
      documentation for information on what each style implies.

      Under normal circumstances the return value is TCL_OK  and  interp  is
      unused.    If  string  doesn't  contain  a  valid  join  style  or  an
      abbreviation of one of these names, then an error message is stored in
      interp->result, TCL_ERROR is returned, and *joinPtr is unmodified.

      Tk_NameOfJoinStyle is the logical inverse of Tk_GetJoinStyle.  Given a
      join  style such as JoinBevel it returns a statically-allocated string
      corresponding to join.   If  join  isn't  a  legal  join  style,  then
      ``unknown join style'' is returned.
