You can do quite a bit of cheap string hacks to read something like that.
For example, at some point in time I needed to parse something like "variable/value".
What I did was do strstr with the "/" character and if it was found I set the character to a null terminator.
So now original_string is the variable and slash_character + 1 is the value.

Or atleast thats how I remember it.
