Tom,

That's the one reason many "parsers" have moved away from strtok.

Jon:

I wondered if anyone would mention strtok(), very handy function. I'd
been looking at using it to parse strings for embedded quotes.

First thought was to wrap each returned token in quotes and add that
result to a result string rebuilding it token by token. But I quickly
discarded that thought because strtok() apparently skips consecutive
delimiters making it unsuitable when the original string contains
consecutive quotes. Too bad because it could make a nice,
straightforward procedure otherwise.
