Parsing Text Output in C

I'm currently working on a better routine to parse the output of /proc/mdstat in Mondo Rescue to get RAID to work on Debian.

Fiddling around with pointers and doing nasty things in general finally got me to think that there must be a better way.

I'm sure everyone else is in the know, but I was quite happy to find the fine GNU C Library Manual where in turn I found strtok() which allows for much cleaner and safer code. Cool.

Also found www.snippets.org. Cool, too.
