- NAME
-
- concat -- concatenate a variable number of strings
-
- SYNOPSIS
-
- #include <varargs.h>
-
- char *concat (s1, s2, s3, ..., NULL)
-
- DESCRIPTION
-
- Concatenate a variable number of strings and return the result
- in freshly malloc'd memory.
-
- Returns NULL if insufficient memory is available. The argument
- list is terminated by the first NULL pointer encountered. Pointers
- to empty strings are ignored.
-
- NOTES
-
- This function uses xmalloc() which is expected to be a front end
- function to malloc() that deals with low memory situations. In
- typical use, if malloc() returns NULL then xmalloc() diverts to an
- error handler routine which never returns, and thus xmalloc will
- never return a NULL pointer. If the client application wishes to
- deal with low memory situations itself, it should supply an xmalloc
- that just directly invokes malloc and blindly returns whatever
- malloc returns.
