+that pointer will be used as the starting point +when searching for the next token. +In this case, +.BR strtok () +returns a pointer to the start of the found token. +.PP +From the above description, +it follows that a sequence of two or more contiguous delimiter bytes in +the parsed string is considered to be a single delimiter, and that +delimiter bytes at the start or end of the string are ignored. +Put another way: the tokens returned by +.BR strtok () +are always nonempty strings. +Thus, for example, given the string "\fIaaa;;bbb,\fP", +successive calls to +.BR strtok () +that specify the delimiter string "\fI;,\fP" +would return the strings "\fIaaa\fP" and "\fIbbb\fP", +and then a null pointer. +.PP +The +.BR strtok_r () +function is a reentrant version of +.BR strtok (). +The +.I saveptr +argument is a pointer to a +.I char\~* +variable that is used internally by +.BR strtok_r () +in order to maintain context between successive calls that parse the +same string. +.PP +On the first call to +.BR strtok_r (), +.I str +should point to the string to be parsed, and the value of +.I *saveptr +is ignored (but see NOTES). +In subsequent calls, +.I str +should be NULL, and +.I saveptr +(and the buffer that it points to) +should be unchanged since the previous call. +.PP +Different strings may be parsed concurrently using sequences of calls to +.BR strtok_r () +that specify different +.I saveptr +arguments. +.SH RETURN VALUE +The +.BR strtok () +and +.BR strtok_r () +functions return a pointer to +the next token, or NULL if there are no more tokens. +.SH ATTRIBUTES +For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see +.BR attributes (7). +.ad l +.nh +.TS +allbox;
