Yes, this is much cleaner than using fscanf().  You can also use
some of the str*() functions instead of or in addition to sscanf()
to parse the buffer.

Many X3J11 members disliked including *scanf() in the Standard, but
because it was widespread existing practice we had to do it.  Same
for gets().
