STRSUB(3) C Programmer's Manual STRSUB(3) NAME strsub - substitute first occurence of pattern with another string SYNOPSIS #include <publib.h> char *strsub(char *str, const char *pat, const char *sub); DESCRIPTION strsub finds the first occurence of the pattern pat in the string str (using a method similar to strstr(3), i.e., no regular expressions), and replaces it with sub. If pat does not occur in str, no substitu- tion is made. Of course, if sub is an empty string, the pattern is deleted from the string. RETURN VALUE strsub returns a pointer to the first character after the substitution, or NULL if no substitution was made. EXAMPLE To substitute up to two occurences of "foo" with "bar" in a line, one might do the following. p = strsub(line, "foo", "bar"); if (p != NULL) strsub(line, "foo", "bar"); SEE ALSO publib(3), strstr(3), strgsub(3) AUTHOR Lars Wirzenius (lars.wirzenius@helsinki.fi) Publib C Programmer's Manual STRSUB(3)
