NAME

       strneqvcmp - compare two strings with an equivalence mapping

SYNOPSIS

       #include <your-opts.h>
       cc [...] -o outfile infile.c -lopts [...]

       int strneqvcmp(char const* str1, char const* str2, int ct);

DESCRIPTION

       Using  a  character  mapping, two strings are compared for "equivalence".  Each input character is mapped to a comparison character and the
       mapped-to characters are compared for the two NUL terminated input strings.  The comparison is limited to ct bytes.  This function name	is
       mapped to option_strneqvcmp so as to not conflict with the POSIX name space.

       str1   first string

       str2   second string

       ct     compare length

RETURN VALUE

       the difference between two differing characters

ERRORS

       none checked.  Caller responsible for seg faults.

NAME

       ao_string_tokenize - tokenize an input string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <your-opts.h>
       cc [...] -o outfile infile.c -lopts [...]

       token_list_t* ao_string_tokenize(char const* string);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function will convert one input string into a list of strings.  The list of strings is derived by separating the input based on white
       space separation.  However, if the input contains either single or double quote characters, then the text after	that  character  up  to  a
       matching quote will become the string in the list.

       The  returned pointer should be deallocated with free(3C) when are done using the data.	The data are placed in a single block of allocated
       memory.	Do not deallocate individual token/strings.

       The structure pointed to will contain at least these two fields:

       tkn_ct The number of tokens found in the input string.

       tok_list An array of tkn_ct + 1 pointers to substring tokens, with the last pointer set to NULL.

       There are two types of quoted strings: single quoted (') and double quoted (").	Singly quoted strings are fairly raw in that escape  char-
       acters () are simply another character, except when preceding the following characters:
	     double backslashes reduce to one
	   '   incorporates the single quote into the string
	   0fP	suppresses both the backslash and newline character

       Double quote strings are formed according to the rules of string constants in ANSI-C programs.

       string string to be tokenized

RETURN VALUE

       pointer to a structure that lists each token

ERRORS

       NULL is returned and errno will be set to indicate the problem:

       EINVAL - There was an unterminated quoted string.

       ENOENT - The input string was empty.

       ENOMEM - There is not enough memory.  @end itemize

EXAMPLES

		#include <stdlib.h>
		int ix;
		token_list_t* ptl = ao_string_tokenize(some_string)
		for (ix = 0; ix < ptl->tkn_ct; ix++)
		do_something_with_tkn(ptl->tkn_list[ix]);
		free(ptl);
	    Note that everything is freed with the one call to free(3C).
