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?
Hum... no, those are the correct splitting elements. However, I
don't think that would actually work, as "find" will privilege
the first whole element to match as a "hit", so "\r\n" never be
hit (rather, it will be hit twice, in the form of two individual
line breaks `\r` and '\n').
Bummer...
