[Ilugc] strtok

[Gopalarathnam V]

You can use strchr() itself.  It would return you the ptr to the first
occurance of the char in ptr, which you can increment by 1 each time
to get the next occurance.

Also, avoid using strtok(), as it is not thread safe.

If you are writing C++ progs, use strstream.
