when using "getline", how can I set the delimiters?

Is it getline (file_here, delimiter) ?

For example, for a single word, would it be getline (file.txt, " ") ?

The C++ IO getline?

If that's the case, which is what I'm guessing, visit http://www.cppreference.com/cppio/getline.html . cppreference.com is my first stop for basic c++ syntax questions.

So, I think it'd be something like:

file.getline(dest_buffer,buffer_size,delimiter);

where the variables are of the appropriate types.

That was exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks.
