How do I, in C, read a text file line by line and find a specific string within that line? The .txt file contains numbers, Symbols, Spaces, and Characters. I also need to be able to read spaces as spaces and not white spaces. I know this is a lot to ask of but, this shouldnt be that hard of a problem for me, but I've stumped myself. If anyone could help it would be much appreciated.

well..
{ Stating the obvious never helped any situation !! }
FILE *f = fopen("myfile.txt","r"); char mystring[80]; while(!feof(f)) { fgets(mystring,80,f); if(strstr(mystring,"abc")!=NULL) printf("found abc in string %",mystring); } fclose(f); { Stating the obvious never helped any situation !! }
Using "while(!feof(f))" while reading lines almost always reads the last line twice when you''re lacking the last endline. You should probably use:
Not a big issue, but it''s really annoying to have one line read twice and not know why
