C> This subroutine copies a specified number of characters from an
C> array of characters into a character string.
C>
C> <p>The characters in the input array CHR are assumed to be ASCII,
C> so for cases where the native machine is EBCDIC, an
C> ASCII-to-EBCDIC translation is done on the final character string
C> before it is output as STR.
