Syntax
#include <xite/biff.h>
BiffStatus Iget_line( IMAGE i, char* s );
Description
Read a whole line from text field of image i
to the string s. The line terminates when:
a) ^J is encountered, or b) 80 characters are
read, or c) at end of text. The returned string

contain the terminating null. The character
position is moved to after the line.

i should be initialized, s should be large
enough (size 81 is always enough).
