NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       char *ustrncpy(char *dest, const char *src, int n);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  is  like  ustrcpy()  except  that  no more than `n' characters from `src' are copied into
       `dest'. If `src' is shorter than `n' characters, null characters are appended to `dest' as padding  until
       `n' characters have been written.

       Note that if `src' is longer than `n' characters, `dest' will not be null-terminated.

RETURN VALUE

       The return value is the value of `dest'.
