54 ;;;
55 ;;; [This is a work-around to get past certain deficiencies in the capabilities
56 ;;; of ports. Eventually, ports should be fixed and this module nuked.]
57 ;;;
58 ;;; A line buffering input port supports:
59 ;;;
60 ;;; read-string which returns the next line of input
61 ;;; unread-string which pushes a line back onto the stream
62 ;;;
63 ;;; The implementation of unread-string is kind of limited; it doesn't
64 ;;; interact properly with unread-char, or any of the other port
65 ;;; reading functions. Only read-string will get you back the things that
66 ;;; unread-string accepts.
67 ;;;
68 ;;; Normally a "line" is all characters up to and including a newline.
69 ;;; If lines are put back using unread-string, they can be broken arbitrarily
70 ;;; -- that is, read-string returns strings passed to unread-string (or
71 ;;; shared substrings of them).
72 ;;;
