NAME
        GetDiskObject - read in a Workbench disk object from disk.

   SYNOPSIS
        diskobj = GetDiskObject(name)
          D0                      A0

        struct diskobject *getdiskobject(strptr);

   FUNCTION
        This routine reads in a Workbench disk object in from disk.  The
        name parameter will have ".info" postpended to it, and the
        icon file of that name will be read.  If the call fails,
        it will return NULL.  The reason for the failure may be obtained
        via ioerr().

        Using this routine protects you from any future changes to
        the way icons are stored within the system.

        A freelist structure is allocated just after the diskobject
        structure; freediskobject makes use of this to get rid of the
        memory that was allocated.

   INPUTS
        name -- name of the object (STRPTR) or NULL if you just want a
                diskobject structure allocated for you (useful when
                calling AddAppIcon() in workbench.library).

   RESULTS
        diskobj -- the Workbench disk object in question
