Help with strings and file directory tree

[jasweb2002]

Hey Everyone,
I need to write a program where the first half builds what is basically a file directroy tree. Files and their paths will come in from file in the form...

/program/file/whatever

... and be read into a string. Problem is I don't know how to manipulate strings very well. What I need to know would be how to pull out "program" for example. Then when done using that, check for and remove "/" and then pull out "file". If not could someone give me a link to a good site with all available string functions? Thanks for the help.
