The new iostream library behaves rather strange: filebuf fb; fb.open("", in); will connect fb to the current directory! Is this ment to be? (We use C++ 2.0 from Glockenspiel, a beta release for Sun sparc station, they added there own iostream headerfile, but I don't know if they changed the original iostream source.) Thanks. P.S. iostream is very nice, compared to stream. It also is fun, try this: main() { cout << cin.rdbuf(); } Leo Willems Internet: leo@atcmp.nl AT Computing UUCP: mcsun!hp4nl!kunivv1!atcmpe!leo P. O.

Berkeley-based systems consider the null string to be a valid name for the current directory. System V considers the null string to be an invalid pathname. -- --Andrew Koenig ark@europa.att.com
