20.Sh DESCRIPTION
21These functions are OpenPAM extensions to the PAM API.
22Those named
23.Fn pam_*
24are, in the author's opinion, logical and necessary extensions to the
25standard API, while those named
26.Fn openpam_*
27are either simple convenience functions, or functions intimately tied
28to OpenPAM implementation details, and therefore not well suited to
29standardization.
