NAME

       getuser - get user name

SYNOPSIS

       #include <u.h>
       #include <libc.h>

       char*	 getuser(void)

DESCRIPTION

       Getuser	returns  a pointer to static data which contains the null-terminated name of the user who owns the current process.  Getuser reads
       /dev/user to find the name.

NAME

       getfields, getmfields, setfields, tokenize - break a string into fields

SYNOPSIS

       #include <u.h>
       #include <libc.h>

       int   getfields(char *str, char **ptrs, int nptrs)

       int   getmfields(char *str, char **ptrs, int nptrs)

       char* setfields(char *fielddelim)

       int   tokenize(char *str, char **args, int max)

DESCRIPTION

       Getfields  breaks the null-terminated string str into at most nptrs null-terminated fields and places pointers to the start of these fields
       in the array ptrs.  It returns the number of fields and terminates the list of pointers with a zero pointer.  It  overwrites  some  of  the
       bytes  in  str.	If there are nptr or more fields, the list will not end with zero and the last `field' will extend to the end of the input
       string and may contain delimiters.

       A field is defined as a maximal sequence of characters not in a set of field delimiters.  Adjacent fields  are  separated  by  exactly  one
       delimiter.   No	field follows a delimiter at the end of string.  Thus a string of just two delimiter characters contains two empty fields,
       and a nonempty string with no delimiters contains one field.

       Getmfields is the same as getfields except that fields are separated by maximal strings of field delimiters rather than just one.

       Setfields makes the field delimiters (space and tab by default) be the characters of the string fielddelim  and	returns  a  pointer  to  a
       string of the previous delimiters.

       Tokenize  breaks  null-terminated string str into tokens by replacing every blank or newline with a null byte.  Pointers to successive non-
       empty tokens are placed in args.  Processing stops after max tokens are processed.  Tokenize returns the number of tokens processed.   Tok-
       enize does not terminate args with a null pointer.

   Alef
       Of these routines, only tokenize is in Alef.
