   5 This function searches memory starting at @code{*@var{s}} for the
   6 character @var{c}.  The search only ends with the first occurrence of
   7 @var{c}, or after @var{length} characters; in particular, a null
   8 character does not terminate the search.  If the character @var{c} is
   9 found within @var{length} characters of @code{*@var{s}}, a pointer
  10 to the character is returned.  If @var{c} is not found, then @code{NULL} is
  11 returned.
