Here is another version of strrev (I called in flipstring) which I wrote
years ago! - I make no claims on it, so feel free to do with it as you
please ;-)

char *flipstring(char *str)
{
int max,hi,lo;

  max=strlen(str);
  hi=max-1;
  lo=0;

  while (lo < hi)
    {
    str[max] = str[lo];
    str[lo++] = str[hi];
    str[hi--] = str[max];
    }
  str[max] = 0;
  return str;
}
