/*
* safe_finger - finger client wrapper that protects against nasty stuff
* from finger servers. Use this program for automatic reverse finger
* probes, not the raw finger command.
*
* Build with: cc -o safe_finger safe_finger.c
*
* The problem: some programs may react to stuff in the first column. Other
* programs may get upset by thrash anywhere on a line. File systems may
* fill up as the finger server keeps sending data. Text editors may bomb
* out on extremely long lines. The finger server may take forever because
* it is somehow wedged. The code below takes care of all this badness.
