    next line problem

    I am just working on substitution cipher program. reading from one file and substuted characters by other characters and write in new file.
    I dont want to substitute space ' ' and next line.
    How can make sure that when function read next line from first file it automatically goes to next line in 2nd file?
    Here the code :
    Code:
    while((ch=fgetc(fpsource))!=EOF)
    	{
    		if(ch!=' ')
    		{
    			for(i=0;i<strlen(str1);i++)
    			{
    				if(ch==str1[i])
    				{	fputc(str2[i],fptarget);
    					break;
    				}
    			}
    		}
    		else
    			fputc(ch,fptarget);
    	}

    Check for '\n' or use fgets().

    [edit]
    And make sure ch is an int or at least not a char.
