C-Reading a specific amount of characters

Question

Hey there, guys! I’m just a beginner in the programming world and I’m facing the following problem: I would like to read the name of a player that must have at least 1 and at most 10 characters, at first I thought to create a larger character vector, such as 100, read and check, but still that wouldn’t guarantee that the user wouldn’t enter with a name greater than 100, would it? So I started to wonder if I could do that reading in some generic way. After researching and trying some things I got something close to what I wanted:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

int main()
{
    int tamanho;
    char nome_do_jogador[13];

    printf("Digite seu nickname:\n(Entre 1 e 10 caracteres!)\n");
    //setbuf(stdin, NULL); NÃO FUNCIONOU, ENTÃO OPTEI POR fflush
    fflush(stdin); //LIMPA O BUFFER DO TECLADO
    fscanf(stdin, "%12[^\n]", nome_do_jogador); //LE 12 CARACTERES ATE ENCONTRAR UMA QUEBRA DE LINHA
    tamanho=strlen(nome_do_jogador);

    while(tamanho>10 || tamanho<1)
    {
        printf("Entrada invalida!\n");
        printf("Digite seu nickname:\n(Entre 1 e 10 caracteres!)\n");
        //setbuf(stdin, NULL);
        fflush(stdin); //LIMPA O BUFFER DO TECLADO
        fscanf(stdin, "%12[^\n]", nome_do_jogador); 
        tamanho=strlen(nome_do_jogador);
    }
    printf("O nickname e: %s", nome_do_jogador);
    return 0;
}

I managed to work on Windows with GCC 7.3.0, but not on Linux also with GCC, but I can’t remember which version at the time.

Is there any way to do this in a generic way and that can maintain cross-platform?

Hugs!
