NAME
       wcpcpy - copy a wide character string, returning a pointer to its end

SYNOPSIS
       #define _GNU_SOURCE
       #include <wchar.h>

       wchar_t *wcpcpy(wchar_t *dest, const wchar_t *src);

DESCRIPTION
       The  wcpcpy  function  is  the wide-character equivalent of the stpcpy
       function. It copies the wide  character	string	pointed	 to  by	 src,
       including  the terminating L’\0’ character, to the array pointed to by
       dest.

       The strings may not overlap.

       The  programmer	must  ensure  that  there  is  room  for   at	least
       wcslen(src)+1 wide characters at dest.

RETURN VALUE
       wcpcpy returns a pointer to the end of the wide-character string dest,
       that is, a pointer to the terminating L’\0’ character.

CONFORMING TO
       This function is a GNU extension.
