Re: [Dev-C++] I´d like to know your hints about file manipulations

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

I normally let fgets read full lines, and then perform any decoding of the
contents.

Then you have a number of options. Comma-separated. Semicolon-separated.
Tab-separated. Encoded inside quotation marks.

I normally use strchr() to process the lines I have read with fgets().
