 /*
  * 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.
