SUMMARY:
	(void) strins(s1, s2)
	char *s1, *s2;

Null terminated string s2 is copied into the front of null terminated
string s1. So if s2 had a pointer to "foo" in it and s1 had a pointer
to "bar" in it, after the call s1 will point to a string "foobar".

Probably the best way to simulate this is with :
string(s1, s2)
	char	*s1, *s2;
{
	char tmp[80];

	strcpy(tmp, s1);
	strcat(tmp, s2);
	strcpy(s1, tmp);
	return;
}

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
