-.TH wcstok 3 (date) "Linux man-pages (unreleased)"
-.SH NAME
-wcstok \- split wide-character string into tokens
-.SH LIBRARY
-Standard C library
-.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <wchar.h>
-.P
-.BI "wchar_t *wcstok(wchar_t *restrict " wcs \
-", const wchar_t *restrict " delim ,
-.BI " wchar_t **restrict " ptr );
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR wcstok ()
-function is the wide-character equivalent of the
-.BR strtok (3)
-function,
-with an added argument to make it multithread-safe.
-It can be used
-to split a wide-character string
-.I wcs
-into tokens, where a token is
-defined as a substring not containing any wide-characters from
-.IR delim .
-.P
-The search starts at
-.IR wcs ,
-if
-.I wcs
-is not NULL,
-or at
-.IR *ptr ,
-if
-.I wcs
-is NULL.
-First, any delimiter wide-characters are skipped, that is, the
-pointer is advanced beyond any wide-characters which occur in
-.IR delim .
-If the end of the wide-character string is now
-reached,
-.BR wcstok ()
-returns NULL, to indicate that no tokens
-were found, and stores an appropriate value in
-.IR *ptr ,
-so that subsequent calls to
-.BR wcstok ()
-will continue to return NULL.
-Otherwise, the
-.BR wcstok ()
-function recognizes the beginning of a token
-and returns a pointer to it, but before doing that, it zero-terminates the
-token by replacing the next wide-character which occurs in
-.I delim
-with
-a null wide character (L\[aq]\e0\[aq]),
-and it updates
-.I *ptr
-so that subsequent calls will
-continue searching after the end of recognized token.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-The
-.BR wcstok ()
-function returns a pointer to the next token,
-or NULL if no further token was found.
-.SH ATTRIBUTES
-For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see

-.SH HISTORY
-POSIX.1-2001, C99.
-.SH NOTES
-The original
-.I wcs
-wide-character string is destructively modified during
-the operation.
-.SH EXAMPLES
-The following code loops over the tokens contained in a wide-character string.
-.P
-.EX
-wchar_t *wcs = ...;
-wchar_t *token;
-wchar_t *state;
-for (token = wcstok(wcs, L" \et\en", &state);
- token != NULL;
- token = wcstok(NULL, L" \et\en", &state)) {
- ...
