NAME

       ustrzncpy - Copies a string into another one, specifying size. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       char *ustrzncpy(char *dest, int size, const char *src, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  is  like  ustrzcpy()  except  that no more than `n' characters from `src' are copied into
       `dest' whose length in bytes is specified by `size' and which is guaranteed to be null-terminated even if
       `src' is bigger than `size'. If `src' is shorter than `n' characters, null  characters  are  appended  to
       `dest'  as  padding until `n' characters have been written. In any case, `dest' is guaranteed to be null-
       terminated.

       Note that, even for empty strings, your destination string must have at least enough bytes to  store  the
       terminating  null  character  of  the string, and your parameter `size' must reflect this. Otherwise, the
       debug version of Allegro will abort at an assertion, and the release version of Allegro will overrun  the
       destination buffer.

RETURN VALUE

       The return value is the value of `dest'.
