Yeah, so you are probably right. The custom definition is something that grew out of my response to the following two posts: A general review of the stdlib https://nullprogram.com/blog/2023/02/11/ https://nullprogram.com/blog/2023/02/11/ A review of scanf https://sekrit.de/webdocs/c/beginners-guide-away-from-scanf.html https://sekrit.de/webdocs/c/beginners-guide-away-from-scanf.... Originally I implemented `getLine` (terrible name!) as a way to get multiple lines of input from stdin in a relatively safe way. The implementation borrows almost all of its ideas from the `sekret.de` post. Because I knew the implementation and it was close to hand on my machine, I used it for this version and just swapped out `stdin` for just any old file. Edit: here's the implementation for reference, https://github.com/adammccartney/algorithms/blob/master/libs/adio/adio.c https://github.com/adammccartney/algorithms/blob/master/libs...
