+/******************************************************************
+ *
+ * Purpose: Program to demonstrate the use of strcmp.
+ * Date:    05-Dec-96
+ * Author:  M J Leslie.
+ * Descrip: The standard strcmp returns 0 when the strings match 
+ *          and indicates which string is lexigraphically greater.
+ *          Every time I have used strcmp, I have never been interested
+ *          in which string is greater and always frustrated that the 
+ *          return code is inverted. This function tidys things up.
