I looked at that and from the description didn't think it does what I need.
 The pos value is the number of chars to skip?  if utf points to the start
of a UTF-8 character and I use a pos of 1 it will return a pointer to the
second character (or NULL)? 

Yes, not re-inventing the wheel was the entire point of this question.

Thanks,
