+/* Split a string into fields.   The string is never modified.
+ *
+ * A false return value indicates that there are no more fields.
+ * Otherwise the next field is at the poisition indicated by *POS and
+ * has length *LEN.
+ *
+ * Set FIRST to true only on the first call for any given value of s.
+ * *POS and *LEN do not need to be initialized in this case.
+ * On subsequent calls, these values should be left at the values
+ * set by the last call.
+ *
+ * Any character in SEPARATORS is taken to be a field separator.
+ * Consecutive field separators are taken to indicate the presence of
+ * an empty field.
