Move a sentence about the terminating \0 from the RETURN VALUES section (where it didn't really belong), to the DESCRIPTION section. English advice: ceri Requested by: das MFC after: 4 weeks

The terminating null character is considered part of the string;
therefore if
.Fa c
is
.Ql \e0 ,
the functions locate the terminating
.Ql \e0 .
