+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions are glibc-specific.
+.P
+An argz vector is a pointer to a character buffer together with a length.
+The intended interpretation of the character buffer is an array
+of strings, where the strings are separated by null bytes (\[aq]\e0\[aq]).
+If the length is nonzero, the last byte of the buffer must be a null byte.
+.P
+These functions are for handling argz vectors.
+The pair (NULL,0) is an argz vector, and, conversely,
+argz vectors of length 0 must have null pointer.
+Allocation of nonempty argz vectors is done using
+.BR malloc (3),
+so that
+.BR free (3)
+can be used to dispose of them again.
+.P
+.BR argz_add ()
+adds the string
+.I str
+at the end of the array
+.IR *argz ,
+and updates
+.I *argz
+and
+.IR *argz_len .
+.P
+.BR argz_add_sep ()
+is similar, but splits the string
+.I str
+into substrings separated by the delimiter
+.IR delim .
+For example, one might use this on a UNIX search path with
+delimiter \[aq]:\[aq].
+.P
+.BR argz_append ()
+appends the argz vector
+.RI ( buf ,\ buf_len )
+after
+.RI ( *argz ,\ *argz_len )
+and updates
+.I *argz
+and
+.IR *argz_len .
+(Thus,
+.I *argz_len
+will be increased by
+.IR buf_len .)
+.P
+.BR argz_count ()
+counts the number of strings, that is,
+the number of null bytes (\[aq]\e0\[aq]), in
+.RI ( argz ,\ argz_len ).
+.P
+.BR argz_create ()
+converts a UNIX-style argument vector
+.IR argv ,
+terminated by
+.IR "(char\ *)\ 0" ,
+into an argz vector
+.RI ( *argz ,\ *argz_len ).
+.P
+.BR argz_create_sep ()
+converts the null-terminated string
+.I str
+into an argz vector
+.RI ( *argz ,\ *argz_len )
+by breaking it up at every occurrence of the separator
+.IR sep .
+.P
+.BR argz_delete ()
+removes the substring pointed to by
+.I entry
+from the argz vector
+.RI ( *argz ,\ *argz_len )
+and updates
+.I *argz
+and
+.IR *argz_len .
+.P
+.BR argz_extract ()
+is the opposite of
+.BR argz_create ().
+It takes the argz vector
+.RI ( argz ,\ argz_len )
+and fills the array starting at
+.I argv
+with pointers to the substrings, and a final NULL,
+making a UNIX-style argv vector.
+The array
+.I argv
+must have room for
+.IR argz_count ( argz ", " argz_len ") + 1"
+pointers.
+.P
+.BR argz_insert ()
+is the opposite of
+.BR argz_delete ().
+It inserts the argument
+.I entry
+at position
+.I before
+into the argz vector
+.RI ( *argz ,\ *argz_len )
+and updates
+.I *argz
+and
+.IR *argz_len .
+If
+.I before
+is NULL, then
+.I entry
+will inserted at the end.
+.P
+.BR argz_next ()
+is a function to step through the argz vector.
+If
+.I entry
+is NULL, the first entry is returned.
+Otherwise, the entry
+following is returned.
+It returns NULL if there is no following entry.
+.P
+.BR argz_replace ()
+replaces each occurrence of
+.I str
+with
+.IR with ,
+reallocating argz as necessary.
+If
+.I replace_count
+is non-NULL,
+.I *replace_count
+will be incremented by the number of replacements.
+.P
+.BR argz_stringify ()
+is the opposite of
+.BR argz_create_sep ().
+It transforms the argz vector into a normal string by replacing
+all null bytes (\[aq]\e0\[aq]) except the last by
+.IR sep .
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+All argz functions that do memory allocation have a return type of
+.I error_t
+(an integer type),
+and return 0 for success, and
+.B ENOMEM
+if an allocation error occurs.
