It depends on the buffering mode of the stream, and also of the
buffering mode of whatever alternative abstraction is being used.
Sorry for being curt - I trusted Walter's earlier explanation would suffice.
Actually my assumption wasn't too bad within its own boundaries. I was
only thinking about stdout and it being line-buffered by default.
Looking into it a little more, I'm not sure what would happen to stdin
and stdout isn't always line-buffered by default anyway (if the output
isn't a terminal for instance).
So I have to agree with you that mixing the two won't work well in most
cases. Sorry for the distraction.
