that wil work, but you could use strchr() to simplify (and probably speed up) this.<br />
<br />
while (i &lt;count) <br />
{ <br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;in.get(&amp;ch); <br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;if (dems,ch)<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;{<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; buf[i] = '\0'; <br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; return 1;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;}<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;++i; <br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;buf[i] = ch; <br />
} <br />
<br />
also you realy don't need ch. &nbsp;I would use the input buffer dirrectly and use a character pointer rather than index buf with [] to speed things up.<br />

How do I alter the getline function to terminate input on any one of few possibilities.<br />
<br />
e.g.<br />
~~~~.getline(line,LINEMAX,<wbr />('\n'||'.'<wbr />||'\t'||&quot;a<wbr /> '/' followed by a space etc etc))<br />
<br />
the above simply doesn't work.<br />
<br />
Any help?

terminate input

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
