The example is very simple. Take in data from STDIN and use it for hash
keys and values. I have to create a new pointer every time to do this
with the hash functions in glib. The only way I can think of doing this is
with mallac. The STDIN has to go into a defined buffer which will point
to the same emmory location every time. Even strcpy would be useless
in this case without mallocing new memory by hand every time.
IF it sees it's a char * it should just take in the data.
