Hello everyone, I got a problem and two question:

1. Problem
    I want to convert stdin to O_BINARY mode.
    a)
        In unix there is no problem because there is no silly text mode.
    b)
        Under Windows using MSVC++ I hack my way using
                setmode ( fileno (stdin), O_BINARY);
        . fdopen() would also be possible.
    c)
        CodeWarrior does not have setmode and ignores the mode parameter of
fdopen

1. Question
    Is there a clean solution for this problem in STDC++?
2. Question
    Why is there no setmode() in std::?

Thanks for your time! Chr.
