       The  wcpncpy() function is the wide-character equivalent of the stpncpy(3) function.  It copies at most n
       wide characters from the wide-character string pointed to by src, including  the  terminating  null  wide
       (L'\0'),  to the array pointed to by dest.  Exactly n wide characters are written at dest.  If the length
       wcslen(src) is smaller than n, the remaining wide characters in the array pointed to by dest  are  filled
       with L'\0' characters.  If the length wcslen(src) is greater than or equal to n, the string pointed to by
       dest will not be L'\0' terminated.

       The strings may not overlap.

       The programmer must ensure that there is room for at least n wide characters at dest.

       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

       wcpncpy - copy a fixed-size string of wide characters, returning a pointer to its end

wcpncpy() returns a pointer to the last wide character written, that is, dest+n-1.
