NAME

       strsep - extract token from string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <string.h>

       char *strsep(char **stringp, const char *delim);

DESCRIPTION

       The  strsep()  function  returns the next token from the string stringp which is delimited by delim.  The
       token is terminated with a `\0' character and stringp is updated to point past the token.

RETURN VALUE

       The strsep() function returns a pointer to the token, or NULL if delim is not found in stringp.

NOTES

       The strsep() function was introduced as a replacement for strtok(), since the latter cannot handle  empty
       fields.  (However, strtok() conforms to ANSI-C and hence is more portable.)

       BSD 4.4
