The format option "%m" doesn't work for MINGW/Windows and is reported as
an unknown conversation type and this sscanf() call would not work.

The alternative is to malloc() enough space manually - e.g.
strlen(input) + 1.

Salva, please have a look if you have a minute to verify my change
as i don't know how to test this code.

strdup() should be another way of doing it, given
we aren't doing any parsing - e.g. ignoring digits with:
%[A-Za-z]
