         <p>Reads a line of bytes/characters from the file referenced by
-          <c>IoDevice</c>. Lines are defined to be delimited by the linefeed (LF, <c>\\n</c>) character, but any carriage return (CR, <c>\\r</c>) followed by a newline is also treated as a single LF character (the carriage return is silently ignored). The line is returned <em>including</em> the LF, but excluding any CR immediately followed by a LF. This behaviour is consistent with the behaviour of <seealso marker="stdlib:io#get_line/2">io:get_line/2</seealso>. If end of file is reached without any LF ending the last line, a line with no trailing LF is returned.</p>

 	  <p>The function can be used on files opened in <c>raw</c> mode. It is however inefficient to use it on <c>raw</c> files if the file is not opened with the option <c>{read_ahead, Size}</c> specified, why combining <c>raw</c> and <c>{read_ahead, Size}</c> is highly recommended when opening a text file for raw line oriented reading.</p> 
 	  <p>If <c>encoding</c> is set to something else than <c>latin1</c>, the <c>read_line/1</c> call will fail if the data contains characters larger than 255, why the <seealso marker="stdlib:io">io(3)</seealso> module is to be preferred when reading such a file.</p>
