there is a lot easier way to get a line from the keyboard than what you coded in the program.c file. fgets() will do all that nasty work for you, like this -- notice there are no loops and only 1 line of code other than the buffer declaration.

  1. char line[100];
  2. fgets(line,sizeof(line),stdin);

BTW: your question is ok, its the poll that is a dumb one.
