27// the POSIX names `memccpy()` & `strdup()` rather than the
28// MSVC-specific `_memccpy()` & `_strdup()`.

132char *strzcpy(char dest[restrict static 1], const char src[restrict static 1], size_t len);
char * strzcpy(char dest[restrict static 1], const char src[restrict static 1], size_t len)
Similar to strncpy(), except result is always nil-terminated.
void * memccpy(void *restrict dest, const void *restrict src, int ch, size_t len)
Copies up to len characters from src into dest, stopping early if the character ch is encountered.
char * strdup(const char *src)
Duplicates a nil-terminated string.
char * strndup(const char *src, size_t size)
Duplicates a nil-terminated string, up to a maximum length.
