+ * mark appears, argparse() acts as if one existed at the end of the string.
+ * Quotation marks are never written back, and do not act as separators. For
+ * example, "a""b""c" will return "abc". An empty quote pair ("") will count
+ * as an argument containing no characters.
+ *
+ * argparse() will write an empty string to argbuffer if no argument is found.
+ *
+ * @param text          String to tokenize.
+ * @param pos           Position to start parsing from.
+ * @param argbuffer     Buffer to store first argument.
+ * @param maxlen        Size of the buffer.
+ * @return              If no argument was found, -1 is returned. Otherwise,
+ *                      the index to the next position to parse from is
+ *                      returned. This might be the very end of the string.
