Subject: [Bug manual/3629] New: stpcpy description in string.texi refers to MS-DOG instead of MS-DOS.
Date: Fri, 01 Dec 2006 02:01:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061201015940.3629.chris.pickett@mail.mcgill.ca> (raw)

This function is not part of the ISO or POSIX standards, and is not
customary on Unix systems, but we did not invent it either.  Perhaps it
comes from MS-DOG.
           ^^^^^^

MS-DOS is more appropriate for a technical manual.
