strcat()                 Append a String
 
 #include   <string.h>                   Required for declarations only
 
 char       *strcat(string1,string2);
 char       *string1;                    Destination string
 char       *string2;                    Source string
 
    strcat() appends 'string2' to the end of 'string1'.  'string1' is
    terminated with a null character ('\0').  'string1' has to be large
    enough to accommodate 'string2'.
 
    Returns:    A pointer to 'string1'.
 
      Notes:    strcat() expects to operate on null-terminated strings.
                No overflow checking is done when strings are copied or
                appended.
 
  -------------------------------- Example ---------------------------------
 
    This example appends the string 'Monday.' to the string 'Today is '.
 
         #include <string.h>
         #include <stdio.h>        /* for printf */
 
         char str1[25] = "Today is ";
         char str2[25] = "Monday."
 
         main()
         {
               strcat(str1,str2);
               printf(str1);
         }
 
         Output:
                "Today is Monday."
