from the manual: int fseek (int fp, int offset [, int whence]) Sets the file position indicator for the file referenced by fp.The new position, measured in bytes from the beginning of the file, is obtained by adding offset to the position specified by whence, whose values are defined as follows: SEEK_SET - Set position equal to offset bytes. SEEK_CUR - Set position to current location plus offset. SEEK_END - Set position to end-of-file plus offset.

Is there a parameter for fseek to tell it to move to a newline, or stop after a certain bytes?
