+.TH LIBSIMPLE_MEMSCAN_INV 3 2018-11-24 libsimple
+.SH NAME
+libsimple_memscan_inv \- skip byte in memory
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+#include <libsimple.h>
+
+void *libsimple_memscan_inv(const void *\fIs\fP, int \fIc\fP, size_t \fIn\fP);
+
+#ifndef memscan_inv

+.PP
+Link with
+.IR \-lsimple .
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR libsimple_memscan_inv ()
+function scans the memory segment
+.IR s ,
+with the size
+.IR n ,
+for the first occurence of any byte
+other than
+.I c
+(it is converted to a
+.BR char ).
+If no such character exist in the memory
+segment, the memory segment's end is returned.
+.PP
+The comparison is case-sensitive.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The
+.BR libsimple_memscan_inv ()
+function returns the pointer
+.I s
+with a minimal offset such that
+.IR *r!=c ,
+where
+.I r
+is the returned pointer.
+If no such offset exists,
+.I &r[n]
+is returned.
+.SH ERRORS
+The
+.BR libsimple_memscan_inv ()
+function cannot fail.
