Defines: strend()

strend(s) returns a character pointer to the NUL which ends s. That
is, strend(s)-s == strlen(s). This is useful for adding things at
the end of strings. It is redundant, because strchr(s,'\0') could
be used instead, but this is clearer and faster.
Beware: the asm version works only if strlen(s) < 65535.

#include "strings.h"

#if VaxAsm

char *strend(s)
char *s;
{
asm("locc $0,$65535,*4(ap)");
asm("movl r1,r0");
}

#else ~VaxAsm

char *strend(s)
register char *s;
{
while (*s++);
return s-1;
}

#endif VaxAsm

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
