DESCRIPTION
loadname replaces the top name in the name stack with a new 16-bit
integer name. Each time a routine causes a hit in picking or selecting
mode, the system stores the contents of the name stack in a buffer. This
enables the user to quickly identify the part of an image that appears
near the cursor.
