Re: installing gtk+1.2.8



Is there a way to do that that isn't

a) insecure

or

b) a pain in the butt?

For example, if you are reading in from a text stream, you have to have a
fixed-size, preallocated buffer, don't you?  You could use multiple
buffers, but that falls into the (b) category.  Is there a standard
function that I'm not thinking of that helps this out?
