+.TH STRING_TO_TOKEN 3 07/25/2000 "Linux Test Project"
+.SH NAME
+string_to_tokens \- Break a string into its tokens
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+\fB
+int string_to_tokens(arg_string, arg_array, array_size, separator)
+char *arg_string;
+char *arg_array[];
+int array_size;
+char *separator;
+\fR
+.fi
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This function parses the string \fIarg_string\fR, placing pointers to
+the \fIseparator\fR separated tokens into the elements of \fIarg_array\fR.
+The array is terminated with a null pointer.
+\fIarg_array\fR must contains at least \fIarray_size\fR elements.
+Only the first \fIarray_size\fR minus one tokens will be placed into
+\fIarg_array\fR.  If there are more than \fIarray_size\fR-1 tokens, the rest are
+ignored by this routine.
+.RE
+
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+strtok(3).
+
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+This function returns the number of \fIseparator\fR separated tokens that
+were found in \fIarg_string\fR.
+If \fIarg_array\fR or \fIseparator\fR is NULL or \fIarray_size\fR is less than 2,
+-1 is returned.
+
+.SH BUGS
+This function uses \fBstrtok()\fR to parse \fIarg_string\fR, and thus
+physically alters \fIarg_string\fR by placing null characters where the
+separators originally were.
