NAME
     netoken, neqtoken - string tokenizers

SYNOPSIS
     #include 


     char *netoken (char **str, char sep);

     char *neqtoken (char **str, char sep, const char *quotes);


DESCRIPTION
     netoken and neqtoken tokenize the string at  the  location
     stored in the pointer str. Each time the function is called,
     it returns the next token, and modifies the str  pointer  to
     point to the remainer of the string, or NUL if there are no
     more tokens in the string.  A  token  is  delimited  by  the
     separator  character  sep;  if  neqtoken is used any quoted
     segments of the string are  skipped  when  searching  for  a
     separator.  A quoted segment is enclosed in a pair of one of
     the characters given in the quotes string.


     The string being tokenized is modified each time the  token-
     izing function is called; replacing the next separator char-
     acter with a NUL terminator.


EXAMPLES
     The  following  function  prints  out  each   token   in   a
     comma-separated string list, which is modified in-place:

     static void splitter(char *list)
     {
       do {
         printf("Token: %s\n", netoken(&list, ','));
       while (list);
     }
