+ * Name: strsep
+ *
+ * Description:
+ *    If *strp is NULL, the strsep() function returns NULL and does
+ *    nothing else.  Otherwise, this function finds the first token in the
+ *    string *strp, that is delimited by one of the bytes in the string
+ *    delim.  This token is terminated by overwriting the delimiter with a
+ *    null byte ('\0'), and *strp is updated to point past the token.
+ *    In case no delimiter was found, the token is taken to be the entire
+ *    string *strp, and *strp is made NULL.
+ *
+ * Returned Value:
+ *    The strsep() function returns a pointer to the token, that is, it
+ *    returns the original value of *strp.
+ *
