The alternative of changing stuff just to shift it around directly after doesn't sound that much more appealing, but I can do that anyway. > >>> >>> for (i = 0; i < arrlen; i++) { >>> p = stpcpy(p, arr[i]); >>> if (i < arrlen - 1) >>> p = stpcpy(p, separator); >>> } >>> >>> That would also allow you to optimize the allocated buffer size above. >> >> I like my version more.
