         Examples of valid extension specifiers:

            [PICS; colName(12)] - an image in row 12 of the colName column
                                      in the PICS table extension

                          first row with with exposure column value > 1000.
            [Rate Table] - extension name can contain spaces!

         There will always be some ambiguity between an extension name and 
         a boolean row filtering expression, (as in a couple of the above
         examples).  If there is any doubt, the expression should be treated
         as an extension specification;  The user can always add an explicit
         expression specifier to override this interpretation.

         The following decision logic will be used:

         1) locate the first token, terminated with a space, comma, 
            semi-colon, or closing bracket.

         2) the token is not part of an extension specifier if any of
            the following is true:

            - if the token begins with '@' and contains a '.'
            - if the token contains an operator: = > < || && 
            - if the token begins with "gtifilter(" or "regfilter(" 
            - if the token is terminated by a space and is followed by
               additional characters (not a ']')  AND any of the following:
                 - the token is 'col'
                 - the token is 3 or 4 chars long and begins with 'bin'
                 - the second token begins with an operator:
                     ! = < > | & + - * / %
                 

         3) otherwise, the string is assumed to be an extension specifier

   The extension numbers are one's based, so 1 = the primary array, 2 = the
   first extension, etc.

   The extension number that gets returned is determined by the following 
   algorithm:

   1. If the input URL includes a binning specification (e.g.
   'myfile.fits[3][bin X,Y]') then the returned extension number
   will always = 1, since CFITSIO would create a temporary primary
   image on the fly in this case.  The same is true if an image
   within a single cell of a binary table is opened.

   2.  Else if the input URL specifies an extension number (e.g.,
   'myfile.fits[3]' or 'myfile.fits+3') then the specified extension
   number (+ 1) is returned.  

   3.  Else if the extension name is specified in brackets
   (e.g., this 'myfile.fits[EVENTS]') then the file will be opened and searched
   for the extension number.  If the input URL is '-'  (reading from the stdin
   file stream) this is not possible and an error will be returned.

   4.  Else if the URL does not specify an extension (e.g. 'myfile.fits') then
   a special extension number = -99 will be returned to signal that no
   extension was specified.  This feature is mainly for compatibility with
   existing FTOOLS software.  CFITSIO would open the primary array by default
   (extension_num = 1) in this case.

/*  
   A sequence of calls to fits_split_names will split the input string
   into name tokens.  The string typically contains a list of file or
   column names.  The names must be delimited by a comma and/or spaces.
   This routine ignores spaces and commas that occur within parentheses,
   brackets, or curly brackets.  It also strips any leading and trailing
   blanks from the returned name.

   This routine is similar to the ANSI C 'strtok' function:

   The first call to fits_split_names has a non-null input string.
   It finds the first name in the string and terminates it by
   overwriting the next character of the string with a '\0' and returns
   a pointer to the name.  Each subsequent call, indicated by a NULL
   value of the input string, returns the next name, searching from
   just past the end of the previous name.  It returns NULL when no
   further names are found.

   The following line illustrates how a string would be split into 3 names:
    myfile[1][bin (x,y)=4], file2.fits  file3.fits
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  ^^^^^^^^^^  ^^^^^^^^^^
      1st name               2nd name    3rd name


NOTE:  This routine is not thread-safe.  
This routine is simply provided as a utility routine for other external
software. It is not used by any CFITSIO routine.
