A 'string' in c is nothing more than a sequential sequence of bytes terminated with a null. But a circular buffer is not guaranteed to be sequential. So without at least some further restrictions it cannot be done.

You may either want to use the circular buffer for holding the pointers of the actual strings or, more likely, for holding the strings themselves. In the first case coding is pretty straightforward (you may use Wikipedia's circular buffe[^]r page for inception). On the other hand, the second case is bit more complex, since you have to explicitely manage blocks of bytes (the strings) in the circular buffer.
