96 /* Given the list of field or byte range specifications FIELDSTR,
97 allocate and initialize the FRP array. FIELDSTR should
98 be composed of one or more numbers or ranges of numbers, separated
99 by blanks or commas. Incomplete ranges may be given: '-m' means '1-m';
100 'n-' means 'n' through end of line.
101 n=0 and n>=UINTMAX_MAX values will trigger an error.
103 if SETFLD_ALLOW_DASH option is used, a single '-' means all fields
104 (otherwise a single dash triggers an error).
106 if SETFLD_COMPLEMENT option is used, the specified field list
107 is complemented (e.g. '1-3' will result in fields '4-').
109 if SETFLD_ERRMSG_USE_POS option is used, error messages
110 will say 'position' (or 'byte/character positions')
111 instead of fields (used with cut -b/-c).
113 The function terminates on failure.
115 Upon return, the FRP array is initialized to contain
116 a non-overlapping, increasing list of field ranges.
118 N_FRP holds the number of field ranges in the FRP array.
120 The first field is stored as 1 (zero is not used).
121 An open-ended range (i.e., until the last field of the input line)
122 is indicated with hi = UINTMAX_MAX.
124 A sentinel of UINTMAX_MAX/UINTMAX_MAX is always added as the last
125 field range pair.

128 given '1-2,4', frp = [ { .lo = 1, .hi = 2 },
129 { .lo = 4, .hi = 4 },

132 given '3-', frp = [ { .lo = 3, .hi = UINTMAX_MAX },
133 { .lo = UINTMAX_MAX, .hi = UINTMAX_MAX } ];
