Newbie problem: Address out of bounds

[Eljay Love-Jensen]

Hi Andre,

Does getLine '\0' terminate the line?

Does getLine assure that not to overrun the theLine's buffer size, including the terminator?  (And, if so, how does getLine know how big theLine's buffer is?)

The bzero function is rather non-portable, as it is not a required part of ANSI or System V.  (I think that harkens back to the days of BCPL.)  A portable alternative is memset(ptr, 0x00, 256); instead.

HTH,
