Synopsis

assign indent, type, pre, post, value ...

Returns a suitable assignment clause. If type is aggregate (e.g., PVN expects both pointer and length), then there should be multiple values for the components. pre and post, if defined, give snippets of C code to proceed and follow the assignment. preis at the start of a block, so variables may be defined in it.
