could you try this library. check whether this helps

[subins2000]

The Tokenization part in that SDS library is exactly what we need. So, C libraries are used just by copy-paste ah ? Perhaps I should use git submodules for better dependency injection.

Realized GNU argp is not available on mac, windows or android. To get argp on them, it'd take some extra work. So this'll only work good on Linux for now.

I tried compiling it on Android, but failed because of

1. no argp
2. When trying to compile argp-standalone, no gettablesize

[subins2000]

@joicemjoseph Can you try statically compiling this on Mac and see if it works. I guess it'd need argp-standalone

[joicemjoseph]

Will try and let you know.
