DESCRIPTION

     The string functions manipulate strings that are terminated by a null
     byte.

     See the specific manual pages for more information.  For manipulating
     variable length generic objects as byte strings (without the null byte
     check), see bstring(3).

     Except as noted in their specific manual pages, the string functions do
     not test the destination for size limitations.
