+ * argv_parse.h --- header file for the argv parser.
+ *
+ * This file defines the interface for the functions argv_parse() and
+ * argv_free().
+ *
+ ***********************************************************************
+ * int argv_parse(char *in_buf, int *ret_argc, char ***ret_argv)
+ *
+ * This function takes as its first argument a string which it will
+ * parse into an argv argument vector, with each white-space separated
+ * word placed into its own slot in the argv. This function handles
+ * double quotes and backslashes so that the parsed words can contain
+ * special characters. The count of the number words found in the
+ * parsed string, as well as the argument vector, are returned into
+ * ret_argc and ret_argv, respectively.
+ ***********************************************************************
+ * extern void argv_free(char **argv);
+ *
+ * This function frees the argument vector created by argv_parse().
