---
Char userName[dlkUserNameBufSize];
CharPtr
getUserName()
{
CharPtr firstSpaceP;
DlkGetSyncInfo(NULL, NULL, NULL, &userName[0], NULL, NULL);
// only use the FIRST name
firstSpaceP = StrChr(userName, spaceChr);
if (firstSpaceP != NULL)
*firstSpaceP = '\0'; // put a '\0' at the end of the string
return userName;
}
