I vote for David's strscpy "fix", as it is simple, and does away with
the dependency on the length of "func_table[kb_func]".
strscpy fix sounds reasonable to me. just to be save in future.
There is only one thing I am wondering about: translation table entries
are set by user using this struct
struct kbsentry {
unsigned char kb_func;
unsigned char kb_string[512];
};
it means entries cannot be longer than sizeof(kbsentry::kb_string) - 1
at all. Do we need extra branching with strscpy() or do we need to do
anything else here?
