I will give this a try.

I tried to reuse fin1, but I was getting error messages.  I suppose I
could have found a way to properly reuse it, but I felt it was easier
to create fin2 for reopening the file.

How can I reuse fin1?  Would this solve my SIGSEGV problem?

Just one of those value checkers.  It's not necessary for operation,
just debugging.

This program is far from complete.  The reason for the string input is
that I will be using this function multiple times, as there are several
files I will be getting data from.  Also, I prefer strings to character
arrays.
