This program numbers the lines found in a text file. Write a program that
reads text from a file and outputs each line to the screen and to another
file preceded by a line number. Print the line number at the start of the
line and right-adjusted in a field of three spaces. Follow the line number
with a colon, then one space, then the text of the line. You should get a
character at a time, and write code to ignore leading blanks on each line.
You may assume that the lines are short enough to fit within a line on the
screen. Otherwise, allow default printer or screen output behavior if the
line is too long (that is, wrap or truncate).
A somewhat harder version determines the number of spaces needed in
the field for the line numbers by counting lines before processing the
lines of the file. This version of the program should insert a new line after
the last complete word that will fit within a 72-character line.
