A NULL does mean '\0' or (void *) 0x. I also referred this -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_character which says the same when
referring to NULL termination of a string, except for one place where
it says 'NUL' is an abbreviation for NULL character -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NUL

With the above I think it does not matter if we say 'NUL' or 'NULL',
but since the change is already in, I will leave it like that.

Thank You.
