NAME

       ustrzcpy  -  Copies a string into another one, specifying size. Allegro
       game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       char *ustrzcpy(char *dest, int size, const char *src);

DESCRIPTION

       This function copies `src' (including the terminating  null  character)
       into  `dest', whose length in bytes is specified by `size' and which is
       guaranteed to be null-terminated even if `src' is bigger than `size'.

       Note that, even for empty strings, your destination string must have at
       least  enough  bytes  to  store  the  terminating null character of the
       string, and your parameter size must reflect this. Otherwise, the debug
       version  of Allegro will abort at an assertion, and the release version
       of Allegro will overrun the destination buffer.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the value of `dest'.
