This is false in case of simple copying. And I doubt, that for more
complex operations splitting `readln' into `readlnBody' and
`readlnEOL' and calling them intermittent would be of any benefit.
For copying there is the operating system command, copy.
Additionally, simple copy is hardly the most used thing when readln is
invoked.
So, either, there should be two functions, one of which preserves the
terminator, or (like in Tango) there should be a parameter to turn them on.
