\fIc\fR does not occur in the string. The \fBstrrchr()\fR function returns a

The \fBstrcmp()\fR function compares two strings byte-by-byte, according to the

.LP
The \fBstrcpy()\fR function copies string \fIs2\fR to \fIs1\fR, including the
terminating null character, stopping after the null character has been copied.
The \fBstrncpy()\fR function copies exactly \fIn\fR bytes, truncating \fIs2\fR
or adding null characters to \fIs1\fR if necessary. The result will not be
null-terminated if the length of \fIs2\fR is \fIn\fR or more. Each function

The \fBstrcspn()\fR function returns the length of the initial segment of
string \fIs1\fR that consists entirely of characters not from string \fIs2\fR.
The \fBstrspn()\fR function returns the length of the initial segment of string
\fIs1\fR that consists entirely of characters from string \fIs2\fR.
.SS "\fBstrdup()\fR"
- .sp
.LP
The \fBstrdup()\fR function returns a pointer to a new string that is a
duplicate of the string pointed to by \fIs1\fR. The returned pointer can be
passed to \fBfree()\fR. The space for the new string is obtained using
\fBmalloc\fR(3C). If the new string cannot be created, a null pointer is
returned and \fBerrno\fR may be set to \fBENOMEM\fR to indicate that the
storage space available is insufficient.

.sp
- .LP
The \fBstrlen()\fR function returns the number of bytes in \fIs\fR, not
including the terminating null character.
- .sp
.LP
The \fBstrnlen()\fR function returns the smaller of \fIn\fR or the number of
bytes in \fIs\fR, not including the terminating null character. The
\fBstrnlen()\fR function never examines more than \fIn\fR bytes of the string
pointed to by \fIs\fR.
.SS "\fBstrpbrk()\fR"
- .sp
.LP
The \fBstrpbrk()\fR function returns a pointer to the first occurrence in
string \fIs1\fR of any character from string \fIs2\fR, or a null pointer if no
character from \fIs2\fR exists in \fIs1\fR.
.SS "\fBstrsep()\fR"
- .sp
.LP
The \fBstrsep()\fR function locates, in the null-terminated string referenced
by *\fIstringp\fR, the first occurrence of any character in the string
\fIdelim\fR (or the terminating `\e0' character) and replaces it with a `\e0'.
The location of the next character after the delimiter character (or
\fINULL\fR, if the end of the string was reached) is stored in *\fIstringp\fR.
The original value of *\fIstringp\fR is returned.
- .sp
.LP
An ``empty'' field (one caused by two adjacent delimiter characters) can be
detected by comparing the location referenced by the pointer returned by
\fBstrsep()\fR to `\e0'.
- .sp
.LP
If *\fIstringp\fR is initially \fINULL\fR, \fBstrsep()\fR returns \fINULL\fR.
.SS "\fBstrstr()\fR"
- .sp
.LP
The \fBstrstr()\fR function locates the first occurrence of the string \fIs2\fR
(excluding the terminating null character) in string \fIs1\fR and returns a
pointer to the located string, or a null pointer if the string is not found. If
\fIs2\fR points to a string with zero length (that is, the string \fB""\fR),
the function returns \fIs1\fR.
.SS "\fBstrtok()\fR"
- .sp
.LP
A sequence of calls to \fBstrtok()\fR breaks the string pointed to by \fIs1\fR
into a sequence of tokens, each of which is delimited by a byte from the string
pointed to by \fIs2\fR. The first call in the sequence has \fIs1\fR as its
first argument, and is followed by calls with a null pointer as their first
argument. The separator string pointed to by \fIs2\fR can be different from
call to call.
- .sp
.LP
The first call in the sequence searches the string pointed to by \fIs1\fR for
the first byte that is not contained in the current separator string pointed to
by \fIs2\fR. If no such byte is found, then there are no tokens in the string
pointed to by \fIs1\fR and \fBstrtok()\fR returns a null pointer. If such a
byte is found, it is the start of the first token.
- .sp
.LP
The \fBstrtok()\fR function then searches from there for a byte that is
contained in the current separator string. If no such byte is found, the
current token extends to the end of the string pointed to by \fIs1\fR, and
subsequent searches for a token return a null pointer. If such a byte is found,
it is overwritten by a null byte that terminates the current token. The
\fBstrtok()\fR function saves a pointer to the following byte in
thread-specific data, from which the next search for a token starts.
- .sp
.LP
Each subsequent call, with a null pointer as the value of the first argument,
starts searching from the saved pointer and behaves as described above.

\fBstrtok()\fR usage and the explanation in \fBNOTES\fR.
.SS "\fBstrtok_r()\fR"
- .sp
.LP
The \fBstrtok_r()\fR function considers the null-terminated string \fIs1\fR as
a sequence of zero or more text tokens separated by spans of one or more
characters from the separator string \fIs2\fR. The argument \fIlasts\fR points
to a user-provided pointer which points to stored information necessary for
\fBstrtok_r()\fR to continue scanning the same string.
- .sp
.LP
In the first call to \fBstrtok_r()\fR, \fIs1\fR points to a null-terminated
string, \fIs2\fR to a null-terminated string of separator characters, and the
value pointed to by \fIlasts\fR is ignored. The \fBstrtok_r()\fR function
returns a pointer to the first character of the first token, writes a null
character into \fIs1\fR immediately following the returned token, and updates
the pointer to which \fIlasts\fR points.
- .sp
.LP
In subsequent calls, \fIs1\fR is a null pointer and \fIlasts\fR is unchanged
from the previous call so that subsequent calls move through the string
\fIs1\fR, returning successive tokens until no tokens remain. The separator
string \fIs2\fR can be different from call to call. When no token remains in
\fIs1\fR, a null pointer is returned.
- .sp
.LP
See Example 3 in the \fBEXAMPLES\fR section for an example of \fBstrtok_r()\fR
usage and the explanation in \fBNOTES\fR.

defined on the compile line. This flag should only be used in multithreaded
applications.
- .sp
.LP
A single-threaded application can gain access to \fBstrtok_r()\fR only by

The \fBstrtok()\fR function is safe to use in multithreaded applications
because it saves its internal state in a thread-specific data area. However,
its use is discouraged, even for single-threaded applications. The
\fBstrtok_r()\fR function should be used instead.

Do not pass the address of a character string literal as the argument \fIs1\fR
