.SH DESCRIPTION
Add a blockette to the blockette chain of an MSRecord structure

.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.B #include <libmseed.h>

.BI "BlktLink  *\fBmsr_addblockette\fP ( MSRecord *" msr ", char *" blktdata ",
.BI "                              int " length ", int " blkttype ", int " chainpos " );
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmsr_addblockette\fP adds a blockette to a blockette chain of an
MSRecord structure.  The \fIchainpos\fP value controls which end of
the chain the blockette is added to.  If \fIchainpos\fP is 0 the
blockette will be added to the end of the chain (last blockette),
other wise it will be added to the beginning of the chain (first
blockette). A blockette chain is composed of linked BlktLink
structures.  A blockette chain for a given MSRecord structure begins
at MSRecord.blkts.

\fIblktdata\fP should be the blockette body (no blockette type and
next header) of \fIlength\fP bytes and type \fIblkttype\fP.

Data structures for all SEED 2.4 data blockette types are defined in
\fBlibmseed.h\fP with these minor exceptions: Blockette 2000 (opaque
data) is only partially represented as it has an unknown data
structure by definition and Blockette 405 which depends on full SEED
for a full data description.  It is highly recommended to use these
provided data structures when adding blockettes as it allows the
library to manipulate the blockette (swap byte order, etc.) and
assures SEED 2.4 compatibility.

.SH RETURN VALUE
\fBmsr_addblockette\fP returns a pointer to the BlktLink structure
added to the blockette chain on success or NULL on error.

.SH SEE ALSO
