NAME

       strins - insert a string at the beginning of another string

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

       strins  inserts	the  src  string at the beginning of the tgt string.  The strings must not overlap.  The target string must contain enough
       memory to hold both strings.

RETURN VALUE

       strins returns its first argument.

EXAMPLE

       See the manual page for strdel(3) for an example.

NAME

       stracat - concatenate many strings into an allocated memory block

SYNOPSIS

       #include <publib.h>
       char *stracat(const char *s, ...);

DESCRIPTION

       stracat	will  allocate	a block of memory with malloc and concatenate all arguments strings into this block.  The user is supposed to free
       the returned block.  The end of the argument list is signalled by a null pointer.

RETURN VALUE

       stracat returns a pointer to the allocated block, or NULL if it could not be allocated.

EXAMPLE

       To concatenate "hello, " and "world", one might say the following.

	    p = stracat("hello, ", "world", (char *)NULL);
	    if (p != NULL)
		 puts(p);

       Please note that it is necessary to case NULL as in the example above,
       since there is no information about the type of the argument available
       in the prototype, and since an unadorned NULL might not be of the
       correct type.  (See any good C reference book or the comp.lang.c FAQ for
       more information.)
