"...did anybody consider putting `index' and `rindex' into the standard?"
"...They have been obsolete since 1980..."
"...OK, does BSD have strchr() and strrchr()?"

4.3BSD provides index, rindex, strchr, and strrchr.  Take your pick.
(It also provides ftruncate, an obsolete system call that modern UNIXes
don't have :-)
