/*
 * newstr.c - string manipulation routines
 *
 * To minimize string copying, string creation, copying, and freeing
 * is done through newstr.
 *
 * External functions:
 *
 *    newstr() - return a malloc'ed copy of a string
 *    copystr() - return a copy of a string previously returned by newstr()
 *    freestr() - free a string returned by newstr() or copystr()
 *    donestr() - free string tables
 *
 * Once a string is passed to newstr(), the returned string is readonly.
 *
 * This implementation builds a hash table of all strings, so that multiple 
 * calls of newstr() on the same string allocate memory for the string once.
 * Strings are never actually freed.
