Error count.
This function does not process image pixels.
You can also use this function to create an Atom, since it creates one for the string if one does not already exist.
If an Atom already exists for lpString, the existing Atom is returned. Thus Atoms may be compared for equality of the underlying string.
Because Atoms cannot be deleted, they are useful for strings that are used many times, but are not advisable for strings that have a short lifetime. For the same reason, it is not a good idea to create large numbers of Atoms.
