    plough through lists, and sometimes are given single items.)

  If the value is <= 0, the string is inspected for a leading <x, where x is an
  ispunct() or an iscntrl() character. If found, x is used as the separator. If
  not found:

      (a) if separator == 0, ':' is used
      (b) if separator <0, -separator is used

  In all cases the value of the separator that is used is written back to the
  int so that it is used on subsequent calls as we progress through the list.

A literal ispunct() separator can be represented in an item by doubling, but
there is no way to include an iscntrl() separator as part of the data.

Arguments:
  listptr    points to a pointer to the current start of the list; the
             pointer gets updated to point after the end of the next item
  separator  a pointer to the separator character in an int (see above)
  buffer     where to put a copy of the next string in the list; or
               NULL if the next string is returned in new memory
  buflen     when buffer is not NULL, the size of buffer; otherwise ignored

Returns:     pointer to buffer, containing the next substring,
             or NULL if no more substrings

The formats are the usual printf() ones, with some omissions (never used) and
three additions for strings: %S forces lower case, %T forces upper case, and
%#s or %#S prints nothing for a NULL string. Without the # "NULL" is printed
(useful in debugging). There is also the addition of %D and %M, which insert
the date in the form used for datestamped log files.
