There is a slight issue with this solution though, as you see 'arg'
gets modified
here, hence 'arg' passed to parser functions will never will null.
We could do something like
if (arg ==ep)
arg = NULL;
if (arg)
arg = used_atom[at].name + (arg - atom) + 1;
if (valid_atom[i].parser)
valid_atom[i].parser(&used_atom[at], arg);
Else we could avoid this assignment and re-assignment by letting 'arg'
hold the value it gets from memcmp(...) and use the solution provided
by me or Ramsay (preferably)
Ramsay's solution being
