*char *strncpy(dest, source, count) - copy at most n characters
*
*Purpose:
* Copies count characters from the source string to the
* destination. If count is less than the length of source,
* NO NULL CHARACTER is put onto the end of the copied string.
* If count is greater than the length of sources, dest is padded
* with null characters to length count.
*
*
*Entry:
* char *dest - pointer to destination
* char *source - source string for copy
* unsigned count - max number of characters to copy
*
*Exit:
* returns dest
*
*Exceptions:
