Reading from the file
---------------------

You can read in the whole file using:

string s;
while (getline(infile, s))
{
	// blah blah
}

but it's probably easier to do one getline 
before the loop to read in the vertical word
separately from the lines of the poem:

mesostic meso;
string s;

getline(infile, meso.vert_word); // read the vertical word directly
while (getline(infile, s))
{
	meso.poem_lines.push_back(s);
}


Finding the match_positions
---------------------------
Use a loop for this.  You can loop over either the letters (chars)
of the vertical word, or the entire lines (strings) of the poem.
It doesn't matter either way, since it's guaranteed there are the
same number of chars in the vertical word as there are lines in the
poem.


Printing the mesostic with the correct spacing
----------------------------------------------
This is where you have to get a bit clever.  The hint here is that 
the number of spaces to add to each line of the poem is dependent on
more than just that single line --- the number depends on a factor
that can only be deduced by examining the entire poem.

Work out some examples (e.g., from the text files) on graph paper
to figure out this algorithm.  See if you can figure out what the 
connection is between match_positions and how many leading spaces 
are added to each line of the poem.
