Joe Kelch le escribe a Stephen Lindholm: JK> You don't understand. fgets() still requires the programmer JK> to give a size to the string BEFORE the user inputs the JK> information. That's what I'm trying to avoid. I want the JK> users input to determine the string size. Apparently C JK> doesn't allow you to do that... No, no it does not. What are you trying to do? An oft-used metaphor with teacups and hammers may apply, methinks. I can think of no place where a limit shouldn't apply and single-line input (without editing keys!) from the console is to be used. loSmaH cha' --- timEd-B9* Origin: Until the People Come Home (1:283/120.1) SEEN-BY: 105/42 620/243 711/401 409 410 413 430 807 808 809 934 955 712/407 SEEN-BY: 712/515 628 704 713/888 800/1 7877/2809 @PATH: 283/120 396/1 270/101 105/103 42 712/515 711/808 809 934 |
