#:docstring strcat:
# Usage: strcat s1 s2
#
# Strcat appends the value of variable s2 to variable s1. 
#
# Example:
#    a="foo"
#    b="bar"
#    strcat a b
#    echo $a
#    => foobar
#
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strcat ()
{
    local s1_val s2_val

    s1_val=${!1}                        # indirect variable expansion
    s2_val=${!2}
    eval "$1"=\'"${s1_val}${s2_val}"\'
}

#:docstring strncat:
# Usage: strncat s1 s2 $n
# 
# Line strcat, but strncat appends a maximum of n characters from the value
# of variable s2.  It copies fewer if the value of variabl s2 is shorter
# than n characters.  Echoes result on stdout.
#
# Example:
#    a=foo
#    b=barbaz
#    strncat a b 3
#    echo $a
#    => foobar
#
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strncat ()
{
    local s1="$1"
    local s2="$2"
    local -i n="$3"
    local s1_val s2_val

    s1_val=${!s1}                       # indirect variable expansion
    s2_val=${!s2}

    if [ ${#s2_val} -gt ${n} ]; then
       s2_val=${s2_val:0:$n}            # substring extraction
    fi

    eval "$s1"=\'"${s1_val}${s2_val}"\'
}

#:docstring strcmp:
# Usage: strcmp $s1 $s2
#
# Strcmp compares its arguments and returns an integer less than, equal to,
# or greater than zero, depending on whether string s1 is lexicographically
# less than, equal to, or greater than string s2.
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strcmp ()
{
    [ "$1" = "$2" ] && return 0

    [ "${1}" '<' "${2}" ] > /dev/null && return -1

    return 1
}

#:docstring strncmp:
# Usage: strncmp $s1 $s2 $n
# 
# Like strcmp, but makes the comparison by examining a maximum of n
# characters (n less than or equal to zero yields equality).
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strncmp ()
{
    if [ -z "${3}" ] || [ "${3}" -le "0" ]; then
       return 0
    fi
   
    if [ ${3} -ge ${#1} ] && [ ${3} -ge ${#2} ]; then
       strcmp "$1" "$2"
       return $?
    else
       s1=${1:0:$3}
       s2=${2:0:$3}
       strcmp $s1 $s2
       return $?
    fi
}

#:docstring strlen:
# Usage: strlen s
#
# Strlen returns the number of characters in string literal s.
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strlen ()
{
    eval echo "\${#${1}}"
}

#:docstring strspn:
# Usage: strspn $s1 $s2
# 
# Strspn returns the length of the maximum initial segment of string s1,
# which consists entirely of characters from string s2.
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strspn ()
{
    # Unsetting IFS allows whitespace to be handled as normal chars. 
    local IFS=
    local result="${1%%[!${2}]*}"
 
    echo ${#result}
}

#:docstring strcspn:
# Usage: strcspn $s1 $s2
#
# Strcspn returns the length of the maximum initial segment of string s1,
# which consists entirely of characters not from string s2.
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strcspn ()
{
    # Unsetting IFS allows whitspace to be handled as normal chars. 
    local IFS=
    local result="${1%%[${2}]*}"
 
    echo ${#result}
}

#:docstring strstr:
# Usage: strstr s1 s2
# 
# Strstr echoes a substring starting at the first occurrence of string s2 in
# string s1, or nothing if s2 does not occur in the string.  If s2 points to
# a string of zero length, strstr echoes s1.
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strstr ()
{
    # if s2 points to a string of zero length, strstr echoes s1
    [ ${#2} -eq 0 ] && { echo "$1" ; return 0; }

    # strstr echoes nothing if s2 does not occur in s1
    case "$1" in
    *$2*) ;;
    *) return 1;;
    esac

    # use the pattern matching code to strip off the match and everything
    # following it
    first=${1/$2*/}

    # then strip off the first unmatched portion of the string
    echo "${1##$first}"
}

#:docstring strtok:
# Usage: strtok s1 s2
#
# Strtok considers the string s1 to consist of a sequence of zero or more
# text tokens separated by spans of one or more characters from the
# separator string s2.  The first call (with a non-empty string s1
# specified) echoes a string consisting of the first token on stdout. The
# function keeps track of its position in the string s1 between separate
# calls, so that subsequent calls made with the first argument an empty
# string will work through the string immediately following that token.  In
# this way subsequent calls will work through the string s1 until no tokens
# remain.  The separator string s2 may be different from call to call.
# When no token remains in s1, an empty value is echoed on stdout.
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strtok ()
{
 :
}

#:docstring strtrunc:
# Usage: strtrunc $n $s1 {$s2} {$...}
#
# Used by many functions like strncmp to truncate arguments for comparison.
# Echoes the first n characters of each string s1 s2 ... on stdout. 
#:end docstring:

###;;;autoload
function strtrunc ()
{
    n=$1 ; shift
    for z; do
        echo "${z:0:$n}"
    done
}
