<<strlen>>---character string length
10
size_t strlen(const char *<[str]>);
14
size_t strlen(<[str]>)
18
The <<strlen>> function works out the length of the string
19
starting at <<*<[str]>>> by counting chararacters until it
20
reaches a <<NULL>> character.
23
<<strlen>> returns the character count.
28
<<strlen>> requires no supporting OS subroutines.
