#### Procedure
       void appndc_c ( ConstSpiceChar   * item,
                       SpiceCell        * cell  )
#### Abstract
       Append an item to a character cell.
#### Required_Reading
       CELLS
#### Keywords
       CELLS
#### Brief_I/O
       VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
       --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
       item       I   The item to append.
       cell      I/O  The cell to which item will be appended.
#### Detailed_Input
       item       is a character string which is to be appended to cell.

       cell       is a character SpiceCell to which item will be appended.
#### Detailed_Output
       cell       is the input SpiceCell with item appended.  item is the
                  last member of cell.

                  If cell is actually a CSPICE set on input and ceases to
                  qualify as a set as result of the append operation,
                  the isSet member of cell will be set to SPICEFALSE.
#### Parameters
       None.
#### Exceptions
       1) If the input cell argument is a SpiceCell of type other than
          character, the error SPICE(TYPEMISMATCH) is signaled.

       2) If the cell is not large enough to accommodate the addition
          of a new element, the error SPICE(CELLTOOSMALL) is signaled.

       3) If the length of the item is longer than the length of the
          cell, ITEM is truncated on the right.

       4) If on input cell is actually a CSPICE set, that is, it
          contains sorted elements with no duplicates, and if item
          is not strictly greater than the last element, on output the
          isSet member of cell will be set to SPICEFALSE.  This case
          is not considered an error.

       5) If the input string pointer is null, the error SPICE(NULLPOINTER)
          is signaled.

#### Examples
       1) In the following example, the item "PLUTO" is appended to
          the character cell planets.  planets is declared with
          string length NAMLEN.

             #include "SpiceUsr.h"
                    .
                    .
                    .
             /.
             Declare the cell with string length NAMLEN and with maximum
             number of elements MAXSIZ.
             ./
             SPICECHAR_CELL ( planets, MAXSIZ, NAMLEN );
                    .
                    .
                    .
             /.
             Before appending "PLUTO", suppose the cell planets' data array
             contains:

                Element 0: == "MERCURY"
                Element 1: == "VENUS"
                Element 2: == "EARTH"
                Element 3: == "MARS"
                Element 4: == "JUPITER"
                Element 5: == "SATURN"
                Element 6: == "URANUS"
                Element 7: == "NEPTUNE"

             Append the string "PLUTO" at index 8, and update the
             cell's cardinality.
             ./

             appndc_c ( "PLUTO", &planets );

             /.
             The cell's data array now has the contents

                Element 0: == "MERCURY"
                Element 1: == "VENUS"
                Element 2: == "EARTH"
                Element 3: == "MARS"
                Element 4: == "JUPITER"
                Element 5: == "SATURN"
                Element 6: == "URANUS"
                Element 7: == "NEPTUNE"
                Element 8: == "PLUTO"
             ./
#### Restrictions
       1)  String comparisons performed by this routine are Fortran-style:
           trailing blanks in the input array or key value are ignored.
           This gives consistent behavior with CSPICE code generated by
           the f2c translator, as well as with the Fortran SPICE Toolkit.

           Note that this behavior is not identical to that of the ANSI
           C library functions strcmp and strncmp.
