strcpy implementation from scratch

This is how mine strcpy would look like if I'd have to write it from scratch :)

void mystrcpy(char * s1, const char * s2)
{
    for(; *s1 = *s2; s1++, s2++);
}

If this is a competition to make the smallest code, then this wins :P

while (*s1++ = *s2++);

Thanks for replying and oh, you're damned right :)
It's like I'm addicted to always use a for-loop, and in that way I practically don't use a while loop :P
