       char *
       strstr(const char *big, const char *little);

       char *
       strtok(char *s, const char *delim);

       char *
       index(const char	*s, int	c);

       char *
       rindex(const char *s, int c);

DESCRIPTION
       The string functions manipulate strings terminated by a null byte.

       See  the	 specific manual pages for more	information.  For manipulating
       variable	length generic objects as byte strings (without	the null  byte
       check), see bstring(3).

       Except as noted in their	specific manual	pages, the string functions do
       not test	the destination	for size limitations.

SEE ALSO
       bstring(3),  index(3),  rindex(3), stpcpy(3), strcasecmp(3), strcat(3),
       strchr(3), strcmp(3), strcpy(3),	 strcspn(3),  strerror(3),  strlen(3),
       strpbrk(3),  strrchr(3),	 strsep(3),  strspn(3),	 strstr(3), strtok(3),
       simd(7)

STANDARDS
       The strcat(),  strncat(),  strchr(),  strrchr(),	 strcmp(),  strncmp(),
       strcpy(),   strncpy(),	strerror(),   strlen(),	 strpbrk(),  strspn(),
       strcspn(),  strstr(),  and  strtok()  functions	conform	  to   ISO/IEC
       9899:1990 ("ISO C90").
