pthead

Pointer to a chain_list

ptdata

Generic pointer to any kind of information

addchain creates a new chain element and adds it to the front of the list pointed to by pthead, and becomes itself the list head.
The chain_lists are mosty used to create temporary lists of homogeneous elements, for binary trees, and so on.
The ptdata points to any kind of list or may itself be a value, if proper cast is performed at compilation time, and fills the DATA field of the chain structure. For details on the structure, see chain(3).

addchain returns a pointer to the new head of list.
