mjm2016 0:97014197b0d4 4 This function will take a string from the terminal and save it in a buffer.
mjm2016 0:97014197b0d4 5 The string is editable during the time user input the string.
mjm2016 0:97014197b0d4 6 This will be useful if any one want to have an interactive interface for an application.
