NAME

       isencrypt - determine whether a buffer of characters is encrypted

SYNOPSIS

       cc  [flag]... [file]... -lgen [library]...

       #include<libgen.h>

       int isencrypt(const char *fbuf, size_t ninbuf);

DESCRIPTION

       isencrypt()  uses  heuristics to determine whether a buffer of characters is encrypted. It requires two arguments: a pointer to an array of
       characters and the number of characters in the buffer.

       isencrypt() assumes that the file is not encrypted if all the characters in the first block are ASCII characters. If  there  are  non-ASCII
       characters in the first ninbuf characters, and if the setlocale() LC_CTYPE category is set to C or ascii, isencrypt() assumes that the buf-
       fer is encrypted

       If the LC_CTYPE category is set to a value other than C or ascii, then isencrypt() uses a combination of heuristics  to	determine  if  the
       buffer is encrypted. If ninbuf has at least 64 characters, a chi-square test is used to determine if the bytes in the buffer have a uniform
       distribution; if it does, then isencrypt() assumes the buffer is encrypted.  If the buffer has less than 64 characters, a check is made for
       null characters and a terminating  new-line to determine whether the buffer is encrypted.

RETURN VALUES

       If the buffer is encrypted,  1 is returned; otherwise, zero is returned.

NAME

       bgets - read stream up to next delimiter

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lgen [ library ... ]
       #include <libgen.h>

       char *bgets(char *buffer, size_t count, FILE  *stream,
	    const char *breakstring);

DESCRIPTION

       The  bgets()  function  reads characters from stream into buffer until either count is exhausted or one of the characters in breakstring is
       encountered in the stream. The read data is terminated with a null byte ('') and a pointer to the trailing null is returned. If a  break-
       string character is encountered, the last non-null is the delimiter character that  terminated the scan.

       Note that, except for the fact that the returned value points to the end of the read string rather than to the beginning, the call

	 bgets(buffer, sizeof buffer, stream, "
");

       is identical to

	 fgets (buffer, sizeof buffer, stream);

       There is always enough room reserved in the buffer for the trailing null character.

       If  breakstring	is  a  null pointer, the value of breakstring from the previous call is used. If breakstring is null at the first call, no
       characters will be used to delimit the string.

RETURN VALUES

       NULL is returned on error or end-of-file.  Reporting the condition is delayed to the next  call if any characters were  read  but  not  yet
       returned.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 Example of the bgets() function.

       The following example prints the name of the first user encountered in /etc/passswd, including a trailing ":"

	 #include <stdio.h>
	 #include<libgen.h>

	 int main()
	 {
	     char buffer[8];
	     FILE *fp;

	     if ((fp = fopen("/etc/passwd","r")) == NULL) {
		 perror("/etc/passwd");
		 return 1;
	     }
	     if (bgets(buffer, 8, fp, ":") == NULL) {
		 perror("bgets");
		 return 1;
	     }
	     (void) puts(buffer);
	     return 0;
	 }
