Re: [cc65] Input string routine for a line of data?

gets() will work, right?  I think I tried that.  As for the quickest method, I meant the one which requires the least code and effort.  Thank you.

Fastest in what terms? Fastest input? Even on 8bit machines it is usually limited only by user's speed of typing. Fastest development? Google for "string input in c", etc..

Might it be the same as under any standard C implementation...

... especially if you want it to work with different targets?

An example to save you googling effort...

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
  char text[20];
  fputs("enter some text: ", stdout);
  fflush(stdout); /* http://c-faq.com/stdio/fflush.html */
  fgets(text, sizeof text, stdin);
  printf("text = \"%s\"\n", text);
  return 0;
}
