Strings.cpp - By Sophie Dexter, April 2010

This C++ module provides functions for working with 'strings' of ascii 'char's

C++ should have functions like these, but it doesn't seem to so these are my
own ones. They are very simple and do not check for any errors e.g. StrCpy
does not check that s1 is big enough to store all of s2.

    while (*s2)
        *s1++ = *s2++;

}

// returns the number of chars in a string
int StrLen(char *s) {
    int x = 0;
    while (*s++)
        x++;
    return (x);
}

// returns TRUE if there is a match
// WARNING actually only checks that s1 starts with s2!
