/*  getint --  prompt user for int
 *
 *  Usage:  i = getint (prompt,min,max,defalt)
 *	int i,min,max,defalt;
 *	char *prompt;
 *
 *  Getint prints the message:  prompt  (min to max)  [defalt]
 *  and accepts a line of input from the user.  If the input
 *  is not null or numeric, an error message is printed; otherwise,
 *  the value is converted to an int (or the value "defalt" is
 *  substituted if the input is null).  Then, the value is
 *  checked to ensure that is lies within the range "min" to "max".
 *  If it does not, an error message is printed.  As long as
 *  errors occur, the cycle is repeated; when a legal value is
 *  entered, this value is returned by getint.
 *  On error or EOF in the standard input, the default is returned.
 *
 *  HISTORY
 * $Log:	getint.c,v $
 * Revision 1.2  90/12/11  17:54:38  mja
