31 /* FUNCTION
32 Opens a library given by name and revision. If the library does not
33 exist in the current system shared library list, the first the
34 system ROMTag module list is tried. If this fails, and the DOS is
35 running, then the library will be loaded from disk.
37 INPUTS
38 libName - Pointer to the library's name.
39 version - the library's version number.
41 RESULT
42 Pointer to library structure or NULL.
