I pretty much need to learn how to do this fairly quickly.
I'm not looking for anyone HERE to go into a detailed explanation (well, if you WANT to...) but rather, a link to a good guide on it.
Specifically, I need to parse webform output c programs would recieve via stdin into the separate variables.
I've never done any sort of text processing (we didn't cover it in class b/c MS Visual C++'s entire string library sucked, and caused crashes, so the instructor didn't even mess with it.)
I'll be using gcc, though.
I can work with incremental or conditional loops, which I understand is how you do these things, but the actual text/string processing functions I know nothing of.
Anyone got a good link or a good shove in the right direction, to get me rolling?
