Arguments: external-format
The argument must be an external-format object. This function returns the number of null (0) octets that must trail an external string represented using the argument external-format. For Franz Inc. supplied external-formats, the ef-nulls return value is 1 for 8-bit based external-formats; and 2 for 16-bit based external-formats (e.g., :fat and :unicode).
See def-external-format. See iacl.htm for more information on international character support in Allegro CL.
