There is a bug in the "addbib" program as distributed with 4.2, namely
that after prompting for the "Abstract:" field of a reference and receiving
a ctrl+D terminator, the code goes into an infinite loop.
Fix-By:
Around line 152 of "addbib.c" there is a loop which looks like,
while (fgets(line, BUFSIZ, stdin))
{
... stuff ...
}
append the following line after that closing brace,
clearerr(stdin);
and it then works ok.
