firestring_strncat(3)                       DragonFly Library Functions Manual

NAME
       firestring_strncat - strncat(3) with slightly saner semantics

SYNOPSIS
       #include <firestring.h>
       -lfirestring

       void firestring_strncat(char * const to, const char * const from, const
       size_t size)

DESCRIPTION
       firestring_strncpy() acts like strncat(3) except that to will always
       contain a trailing nil, even if the function runs out of space and the
       size argument is the maximum size of all of to, not just the amount of
       space remaining in it.  In simpler terms, firestring_strncat() appends
       the string from to to, where to is a buffer of size bytes.

RETURN VALUE
       Always succeeds.
