Steven Dee 324c6a235d Remove most instances of strcpy and sprintf
OpenBSD whines about these and recommends using strlcpy / snprintf
instead. Since strlcpy isn't quite universal yet, we use strncpy instead
and be careful about terminating the string. We could implement a
portable strlcpy in terms of strncpy, but that'd add another function to
the namespace.

Yes, usually the length is obviously bounded. Still, pretending
strcpy/sprintf don't exist seems like a great strategy.

N.B. there are still a few occurrences of strcpy and sprintf under f/
and in libuv, but I don't have time to tackle them right now.

Urbit

Urbit is a new programming and execution environment designed from scratch. Any resemblance to existing languages or operating systems is coincidental, cosmetic, or inevitable.

There is a lot to explain. For more information, watch a demo screencast and see the Urbit website.

System Requirements

Currently we support OS X, Ubuntu, Debian, and Amazon Linux.

Urbit depends on the following packages:

  • GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library
  • OpenSSL
  • libsigsegv
  • ncurses

Building Urbit

See the documentation for instructions on building and running Urbit.
