This is not, as far as I know, something that is the matter with legos, but
rather with my C programming skills. I'm trying to write the function
strcat, but apparantly I'm losing memory somewhere.
If anyone can see any apparant leak, please let me know. Thanks
char* strcat(char *dest,const char *src) {
char *d2=dest;
while(*(d2++) != 0)
;
while( ( *(d2++) = *(src++) ) != 0)
;
return dest;
}
