string_copy seems pointless, it's kinda equivalent to strcpy.

Yeah, but if we are thinking into write some wrappers let's create=

for the major string manipulation used...

A wrapper should have a benefit, your string_copy doesn't have any.

It have it, take this example:

=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0char *a;
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0a =3D malloc(1024);
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0strcpy(a, NULL);

at least with the wrapper you will get a notice about what's going
on...

The debugger shows you what's going on without wrapper.
