- I believe the string template "getline" was accidently omitted from
- the April 1995 draft. It is in the September 1995 draft.

- BTW, Plauger's book represents a snapshot of the draft standard as
- of about March 1994. Some library features have changed substantially since
- then, although some areas haven't changed much.
