.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBstr_copy\fR copies \fIsrc\fR into \fIdst\fR up to the first occurance of \\0 while including it.
It returns the number of bytes written.
If \fIdst\fR is smaller than \fIsrc\fR, \fBstr_copy\fR fills up \fIdst\fR
to its allocated size and returns the number of bytes it would have be written.
\fBstr_copyb\fR copies \fIlen\fR bytes from \fIsrc\fR into \fIdst\fR.
\fBstr_chr\fR and \fBstr_rchr\fR searches for a single character in a string
(from left-to-right or from right-to-left) and returns the position of
the \fIfirst\fR occurrance of \fIc\fR or the length \fIlen\fR of \fIs\fR.
\fBstr_len\fR determines the length of a string. It returns the position
of the first occurance of \\0 in \fIs\fR.
\fBstr_diff\fR, \fBstr_diffn\fR, and \fBstr_equal\fR compare two strings.
\fBstr_diff\fR and \fBstr_diffn\fR returns negative, zero or positive, depending
whether the string \fIs\fR[0], \fIs\fR[1], ..., \fIs\fR[n]=='\\0' is
ASCII lexicographically smaller than, equal to, or greater than the string
\fIt\fR[0], \fIt\fR[1], ..., \fIt\fR[m-1]=='\\0'. If the strings are different,
both functions do not read bytes past the first difference.
\fBstr_diffn\fR considers the strings equal if the first \fIn\fR characters match.
\fBstr_equal\fR returns 1, if \fIs\fR and \fIt\fR match up to and including the
first occurance of \\0 or returns 0 otherwise. It is the opposite of \fBstr_diff\fR.
\fBstr_start\fR compares the two strings from the begining.
It returns 1 if \fIt\fR is a prefix of \fIs\fR or 0 otherwise.
\fB*str_append\fR appends a single byte \fIs\fR to \fIout\fR given \fIout\fR
is allocated with enough space.
.SH "NOTE"
For the \fBstr_copy*\fR and \fB*str_append\fP commands \fIdst\fR
has to have a preallocated space.
Otherwise the result may be unexpected.
