Description Joseph Mallett 2001-07-16 11:50:00 UTC 
the first sentance of strcpy(3) manpage states that both strncpy and strcpy in fact do what only strcpy does. It seems to me this is just a typo, as the second sentance is clearly structured the same, and therefore is probably what is meant to be the description.

How-To-Repeat: man 3 strcpy
