/* getstab -- ask user for string in table
*
* Usage: i = getstab (prompt,table,defalt)
* int i;
* char *prompt, **table, *defalt;
*
* Getstab prints the messge: prompt [defalt]
* and asks the user to type in a line. This input text
* is compared to all the strings in the table to see which
* (if any) it matches; the stablk() routine is used
* for the matching. If the string is ambiguous or invalid
* (i.e. matches zero strings, or more than one), the cycle
* is repeated. When a valid string is typed, the index
* of the string it matches is returned. If the user just
* types carriage return, the default string is used for matching.
* The default is also used on error or EOF in standard input.
* The string table may be declared in this way:
* char *table[] = {"string1","string2",...,0};
*
* HISTORY
* $Log: getstab.c,v $
* Revision 1.2 90/12/11 17:55:53 mja
* Add copyright/disclaimer for distribution.
*
* 28-Apr-85 Steven Shafer (sas) at Carnegie-Mellon University
* Modified for 4.2 BSD. Now uses stderr for output.
*
* 08-Mar-83 Steven Shafer (sas) at Carnegie-Mellon University
* Fixed by adding missing "return" statement! Somehow, it
* worked on the VAX anyway ...
*
* 23-Oct-82 Steven Shafer (sas) at Carnegie-Mellon University
* Added code to use default value on error or EOF in standard input.
*
* 20-Nov-79 Steven Shafer (sas) at Carnegie-Mellon University
* Rewritten for VAX. Now lets stablk() do the error-message printing.
*
* Originally by klg (Ken Greer) on IUS/SUS UNIX.
