That example's short n' cute, I like that.

Since we're on this subject of getline (grabbin' words), etc., if you have a file buffered as a string file (not char, but a 'string myfile'), is there a method of applying getline to read the string or perhaps another method that I'm unfamilar with?
ie.won't work since myfile isn't istream but the stored contents of the file. I need to process the data a 2nd time before output to a file, though I can't figure out how to do that.Code:getline(myfile,anotherstring,'\n')

Use a stringstream
KurtCode:string myfile; // holds the total contents of a textfile stringstream str(myfile); while ( getline( str, anotherstring /*, '\n' */ ) ) { // '\n' is default // process anotherstring }
Ah! So that's how one does that. Thanks. I was scratchin' my head for several hours over this.
