When you initialize a string this way, the data is constant, and therefore
cannot be modified.  You could try something like this instead:

char chmap[5][10];  /* 5 rows, 10 columns */

strcpy(chmap[0], "-----\r\n");

Then later you can do this:

strcpy(chmap[0], "-A-A-\r\n");

or

chmap[0][1] = 'A';


Hope this helps.
