Thread: Dividing a string to words

Three, actually:

J.5.1 Environment arguments
In a hosted environment, the main function receives a third argument, char *envp[], that points to a null-terminated array of pointers to char, each of which points to a string that provides information about the environment for this execution of the program (5.1.2.2.1).


I wouldn't recommend using *envp[], though.
