NAME

       ustrtok_r  -  Reentrant  function  to  retrieve  tokens  from a string.
       Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       char *ustrtok_r(char *s, const char *set, char **last);

DESCRIPTION

       Reentrant version of ustrtok. The `last'  parameter  is  used  to  keep
       track  of  where the parsing is up to and must be a pointer to a char *
       variable allocated by the user that remains the same while parsing  the
       same string. Example:

          char *word, *last;
          char string[]="some-words with dashes";
          char *temp = ustrdup(string);
          word = ustrtok_r(string, " -", &last);
          while (word) {
             allegro_message("Found `%s'\n", word);
             word = ustrtok_r(NULL, " -", &last);
          }
          free(temp);

RETURN VALUE

       Returns  a  pointer to the token, or NULL if no more are found. You can
       free the memory pointed to by `last' once NULL is returned.
