I am "porting" code developed using AT&T C++ Release 2.1 to G++ v1.37.
My problem is this:

	How do you associate a string with the input stream in g++ - 
        ie. read from a string with operator >> instead of from cin ?

Below is a cutdown excerpt of what I'm doing in AT&T C++ that I'd like to
imitate in g++.


// The program:
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <strstream.h>
#include <stream.h>
#include <string.h>

int main()
{
    char buf[256];
    char word[16];
    strcpy(buf,"Hello world");
    istrstream ss(buf);
    ss >> word; cout << word << "\n";
    ss >> word; cout << word << "\n";
}
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

// Run output:
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello
world


// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
