you can use fgets() with STDIN instead. This function is secured and always insert a '\0' at the string end.

An example:

char inputbuffer[10];
char *p;
p = fgets(inputbuffer, sizeof(inputbuffer), stdin);
printf(">%s<\n", p);    /* p is NULL on error, but printf is fair */

You'll get at most 9 characters + '\0', in this example.
