I wonder it it would be worth adding a function that is like
gets, but takes a buffer length (ie discards the \n - and maybe
the rest of the line).
C2011 has char *gets_s(char *s, rsize_t n);
It discards the \n, but does not discard the rest of the line, so
you can't tell the difference between a line that was exactly the
maximum length (followed by a \n which is discarded) or a line
that was too long. fgets() can tell the difference, however.
