## This module provides support for `memory mapped files`:idx:
## (Posix's `mmap`:idx:) on the different operating systems.
##
## It also provides some fast iterators over lines in text files (or
## other "line-like", variable length, delimited records).

  ## Unlike readLine(File) & lines(File), archaic MacOS9 \\r-delimited lines
  ## are not supported as a third option for each line.  Such archaic MacOS9
  ## files can be handled by passing delim='\\r', eat='\\0', though.
  ##
  ## Delimiters are not part of the returned slice.  A final, unterminated line
  ## or record is returned just like any other.
  ##
  ## Non-default delimiters can be passed to allow iteration over other sorts
