Ok ... I've done some research ... and I was wrong. The skipws manipulator
only skips -leading- whitespace ... not whitespace altogether. From all
I've read, you'd have to use the unformatted function read() in order to do
what you wanted. (Or redefine the >> operator for the object you're reading
into, but you're just reading into a C++ string, so that would be bad.
*shrugs* I'm going to keep looking, though.
