Mark,

I didn't think to check if the array_puts() function had hte correct
boundary condition as per the updated array_putc() you sent the other day. I
checked and array_puts() appears to need an update for the boundary conditon
as well.

The original code is:
    while (*s && (array->ptr <= array->end))
    {
      *(array->ptr) = *s;
      ++(array->ptr);
      ++s;
    }

I think the updated code should be
    while (*s && (array->ptr < array->end))
    {
      *(array->ptr) = *s;
      ++(array->ptr);
      ++s;
    }

In the while() the '<=' should be '<'. I gave this a quick test and it
appeared to work, but I need to get some sleep now and will test it tomorrow
night  for an hour or two.

Does this fix look okay?

Andrew
