STRMOVE(3)                   C Programmer's Manual                  STRMOVE(3)

NAME
       strmove - make a copy of a string, handling overlapping strings

SYNOPSIS
       #include <publib.h>
       char *strmove(char *tgt, const char *src);

DESCRIPTION
       strmove copies the string src to tgt, just like strcpy(3), but handles
       overlapping moves correctly (cf. memcpy(3) vs. memmove(3)).

RETURN VALUE
       strmove returns tgt.

SEE ALSO
