 function
 copies bytes from string

+.Fa s2
 to string
-.Fa dst .
+.Fa s1 .
 If the character

 (as converted to an unsigned char) occurs in the string
-.Fa src ,
+.Fa s2 ,
 the copy stops and a pointer to the byte after the copy of
 .Fa c
 in the string
-.Fa dst
+.Fa s1
 is returned.
 Otherwise,
-.Fa len

 bytes are copied, and a NULL pointer is returned.
