.Sh DESCRIPTION The .Fn scanc function scans the byte string .Fa cp , whose length is .Fa size . A character in the string is used as an index in the 256-byte .Fa table . If a bitwise-AND of the byte from the table and .Fa mask isn't zero or the string is exhausted, the scan stops. ------------------------------------------------------------
.Sh RETURN VALUES The .Fn scanc function returns the length of the rest of the string, including the character which made the scan stop. If the .Fn scanc function exhausted the string, it returns 0. ------------------------------------------------------------
