Well, the issue is that this isn't very portable for *reading*,
as even on linux, you may read files with "\r\n" line endings
(It's "standard" for csv files, for example), or read "\n"
terminated files on windows.
The issue is that (currently) we don't have any splitter that
operates on multiple needles. *That'd* be what needs to be
written (probably not too hard either, since "find" already
exists).
Good idea. So its "just" a matter of extending splitter with
std.algorithm.find with these three keys:
- \n
- \r
- \r\n
then? Or are there more encodings to choose from?
We also have splitLines,
"http://dlang.org/phobos/std_string.html#.splitLines";. Is that
good enough for you by any chance? Or do you need it to
actually be lazy?
Lazyness is good in this case because my input files are
Gigabytes in size :) I'm playing around with single-pass-parsing
