In the beginning of the function in the snippets, declare a buffer,
to use for the function. One of the main differences between bpl18
and bpl21 was the removal of global buffers. So, add the line(s)

char buf[MAX_STRING_LENGTH];
char buf1[MAX_STRING_LENGTH];
char buf2[MAX_STRING_LENGTH];
char arg[MAX_STRING_LENGTH];

in functions that use the appropriate buffers.

Learn it. _Then_ ask questions.
