/* File : bmove.c
Author : Richard A. O'Keefe.
Updated: 23 April 1984
Defines: bmove()
bmove(dst, src, len) moves exactly "len" bytes from the source "src"
to the destination "dst". It does not check for NUL characters as
strncpy() and strnmov() do. Thus if your C compiler doesn't support
structure assignment, you can simulate it with
bmove(&to, &from, sizeof from);
The standard 4.2bsd routine for this purpose is bcopy. But as bcopy
has its first two arguments the other way around you may find this a
bit easier to get right.
No value is returned.
Note: the "b" routines are there to exploit certain VAX order codes,
but the MOVC3 instruction will only move 65535 characters. The asm
code is presented for your interest and amusement.
