I would like to run my program from the sd card, and I've noticed that if
the program is running and the sdcard is taken out, the program is copied
onto the main system memory. I can live with that, however I would like to
be able to detect and delete the program from the main system memory
Yes there is a reset when someone pulls the card and the program can no
longer access the files it needs, so what you are describing is what I'm
seeing. So back to the original question, I guess the answer is that if it
is not deleted from system memory then I must assume that it is the result

I think memcpy might do what you want. It is supposed to handle overlapping
memory.
Something like:
int Len = strlen(string);
memcpy(string[Len],string,Len);
The problem you are coming across is that the strcat function needs to know
where the end of the string you are copying from is. As
