ars_GetField is probably only useful if you want to write your own
client application.  I used it the the www interface.  All of its
data structures should be covered (or at least mentioned) in the html
doc.

this will print out a field label, given a schema and a field id:

($field = ars_GetField($ctrl, $schema, $field_id)) || die "get field";
print $field->{displayList}[0]{label}."\n";

this will pad the entry id to 15 characters for the User schema:

$entry_id = ars_padEntryid($c,"User",$entry_id);


by the way, has anyone tried out or had luck with the web client?
