NAME
       ustrdup - Duplicates a string. Allegro game programming library.


SYNOPSIS
       #include <allegro.h>

       char *ustrdup(const char *src)


DESCRIPTION
       This functions copies the null-terminated string `src' into a newly allocated area of memory, effectively
       duplicating it. Example:

          void manipulate_string(const char *input_string)
          {
             char *temp_buffer = ustrdup(input_string);
             /* Now we can modify temp_buffer */
             ...


RETURN VALUE
       Returns the newly allocated string. This memory must be freed by the caller. Returns NULL  if  it  cannot
       allocate space for the duplicated string.
