euc-to-string

Arguments: eucvector &key drop-last-null

This function is obsolete. Users are encouraged to use octets-to-string instead of excl:euc-to-string. The equivalence is as follows:

(octets-to-string eucvector :end (if* drop-last-null
                then (position 0 eucvector)
                else (length eucvector))
        :external-format :euc)

This function converts an EUC vector (which must have type (unsigned-byte 8 (*)) to a Lisp string. If the value of the drop-last-null keyword argument is t (the default), then if the last character in eucvector is a null character, it is not included in the Lisp string.
