Hello there, I was using read-line to read a large line and found it limits its input to 4095 chars. I tested this on both Clojure 1.8.0 and 1.9.0-beta1.
Steps to reproduce: $ lein new foo $ cd foo $ lein repl ... => (count (read-line)) Then enter a line that’s longer than 4095 characters; I used 8000 a's. Expected output: 8000 Actual output: 4095 No matter the real length of your input, it’ll always be truncated to 4095 chars if it’s longer. This is not in the documentation so I assume it’s either an implementation bug or a documentation miss. I wanted to know which one it is before trying to fix it. I’ve done some research and it appears to be a limitation of the BufferedReader’s readLine method that uses a buffer of either 4k or 8k depending on the implementation. Should we (1) work around this limit in the code so that read-line does actually read a whole line or (2) just update the documentation to note this limit?
