Since I do not have the time to space out my code as I go along, I was
hoping to save time by making a program that takes as its argument a
C/C++ file and indents it automatically depending on {}.  I'd really
like to see this feature in rhide, but since it does not exist, I need
to code it up.

My code however is buggy because I suck really badly at interfacing with
other people's code...

I can't even get my program to read in a line without getting extra
Ascii gibberish.  Anyone have the code to read in a line of text out of
an Ascii text file?  My code looks like this:


#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdio.h>

FILE *in;
char *getline(FILE *f1);

void main(void)
{
//using cut and pastest code I had from a genetics project...
//This is why I'm using enz(enzyme) for text holders
char enz[250];
char enz2[250];
in = fopen("test.txt", "rt");
while (!feof(in))
   {
   strcpy(enz,getline(in));
   cout<<enz<<endl;
   }
}


char *getline(FILE *f1)
{
//Assumes no line is greater than 256 characters
char c=0;
char line[256];
int i;
//Loop while not end of line
i=0;
while(c!=10)
{
  c=fgetc(f1);
   if(c!=10)
   line[i]=c;
   i++;
}
   line[i]='\0';
return(line);
}
