NAME

       bcopy - copy byte string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <string.h>

       void bcopy (const void *src, void *dst, size_t len);

DESCRIPTION

       The  bcopy function copies len bytes from string src to string dst.  If
       len is zero, no bytes are copied.

       The two strings may overlap.  This is different than the implementation
       of  bcopy in versions of GNO prior to v2.0.6; bcopy is no longer imple‐
       mented in terms of memcpy.

       A bcopy function appeared in 4.2BSD.
