.SH NAME
getline() \- reads a line from standard input
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.B
int getline(buffer,length)
.B char *buffer;
.B int length;
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
getline() reads up to length characters from the standard input
using getc() (q.v.). The transfer is also terminated by a
newline, end of file, or read error. The buffer is NULL ('\\0')
terminated with the new line removed.
.SH RETURNS
Returns either the number of bytes in the buffer or a standard
system error code (including EOF).
.SH NOTES
getline() always reads to the end of the input line, even if the
line is longer than the buffer.
