so...

apearently iwhen i read characters from a data file in c++ they skip over the white space?

pseudo code:

read in char from file
is it ' ' (space)


but it skips all that automatically.

how do i read chars from a file including the spaces, tabs, newlines, etc??

ifstream >> overloaded doesnt read whitespace, where .get(char &) does.

thanks
