#include <wchar.h> wchar_t *wcscpy(wchar_t *dest, const wchar_t *src); DESCRIPTION

It copies the wide-character string pointed to by src, including the terminating null wide character (L''), to the array pointed to by dest. The strings may not overlap. The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least wcslen(src)+1 wide characters at dest. RETURN VALUE
wcscpy() returns dest. ATTRIBUTES
