## This module contains code for reading from `stdin`:idx:. On UNIX the
## linenoise library is wrapped and set up to provide default key bindings
## (e.g. you can navigate with the arrow keys). On Windows `system.readLine`
## is used. This suffices because Windows' console already provides the
## wanted functionality.

## `nil`! May throw an IO exception.
## A line of text may be delimited by `CR`, `LF` or
## `CRLF`. The newline character(s) are not part of the returned string.
## Returns `false` if the end of the file has been reached, `true`
## otherwise. If `false` is returned `line` contains no new data.
