<UL>
  <LI>The getenv function - snd_func_getenv() - obtains
      an environment value. The result is a string.
  <LI>The igetenv function - snd_func_igetenv() - obtains
      an environment value. The result is an integer.
  <LI>The concat function - snd_func_concat() - merges all specified
      strings. The result is a string.
  <LI>The datadir function - snd_func_datadir() - returns the
      ALSA data directory. The result is a string.
  <LI>The refer function - snd_func_refer() - copies the referred
      configuration. The result has the same type as the referred node.
  <LI>The card_driver function - snd_func_card_driver() - returns
      a driver identification. The result is a string.
  <LI>The card_id function - snd_func_card_id() - returns
      a card identification. The result is a string.
  <LI>The pcm_id function - snd_func_pcm_id() - returns
      a pcm identification. The result is a string.
  <LI>The private_string function - snd_func_private_string() - returns the
      string from the private_data node.
  <LI>The private_card_driver function - snd_func_private_card_driver() -
      returns the driver identification from the private_data node.
      The result is a string.
  <LI>The private_pcm_subdevice function - snd_func_private_pcm_subdevice() -
      returns the PCM subdevice number from the private_data node.
      The result is a string.
