strmove - make a copy of a string, handling overlapping strings

SYNOPSIS¶

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

DESCRIPTION¶

strmove copies the string src to tgt, just like strcpy(3), but handles overlapping moves correctly (cf. memcpy(3) vs. memmove(3)).

RETURN VALUE¶

strmove returns tgt.
