i have been doing it like this but there is probly a better way
fgets(str,100,f);
i=0;
while (str != ''\n'') {
path_suffix=str;<br> i++;<br> } path_suffix=''\0''; </i>
fgets(str,100,f);
i=0;
while (str != ''\n'') {
path_suffix=str;<br> i++;<br> } path_suffix=''\0''; </i>

StrTrim, hmm, I''ve never heard of that before, I use
fgets(str,?,f);
char* c = strchr(str,''\n'');
*c = ''\0'';
fgets(str,?,f);
char* c = strchr(str,''\n'');
*c = ''\0'';

Why not use
Or you could always just use fgetc and loop until you encounter the newline character ('\n').

// string_to_use is the string in question// might have to use (strlen(string_to_use) + 1)// depending on systemstring_to_use[strlen(string_to_use)] = '\0'; Or you could always just use fgetc and loop until you encounter the newline character ('\n').

That's the method I use. However, you should check to make sure c isn't NULL before doing the assignment. Otherwise, if the last line in your file doesn't have a newline, you'll get a core dump or GPF.

You might also want to check for ''\r'', too.
Chess is played by three people. Two people play the game; the third provides moral support for the pawns. The object of the game is to kill your opponent by flinging captured pieces at his head. Since the only piece that can be killed is a pawn, the two armies agree to meet in a pawn-infested area (or even a pawn shop) and kill as many pawns as possible in the crossfire. If the game goes on for an hour, one player may legally attempt to gouge out the other player's eyes with his King.

you are opening the file in text mode aren''t you???
infile = fopen (filename, "rt");
which will automatically convert \n\r into a single (and consistant) \n character.
