  *
- *	Returns the 'n'th delimited parameter on the command line (zero-based).
- *	Parameter is in static storage overwritten on the next call.

- *	Also returns a pointer to the location of the parameter in the command line.
+ * Extracts a delimited parameter from an input string
+ *
+ * PARAMS
+ *  s     [I] input string, non NULL
+ *  n     [I] # of the (possibly double quotes-delimited) parameter to return
+ *            Starts at 0
+ *  where [O] if non NULL, pointer to the start of the nth parameter in s,
+ *            potentially a " character
+ *
+ * RETURNS
+ *  Success: Returns the nth delimited parameter found in s.
+ *           *where points to the start of the param, possibly a starting
+ *           double quotes character
+ *  Failure: Returns an empty string if the param is not found.
+ *           *where is set to NULL
+ *
