I'm trying to read a file with entries seperated by '\n\n'

File.readLine(KeepTerminator, Terminator) might work, as it
seems to accept strings as terminators, since there seems to
have been a thread regarding '\r\n' seperators.
I don't know if there's some underlying reason, but when I try
to use "\n\n" as a terminator, I end up getting the entire file
into 1 char[], so it's not delimited.
Should this work or is there a reason one cannot use byLine
like this?
For context, I'm trying this with the puzzle input of day 6 of

Unfortunately std.csv is character based and not string.

But your use case sounds like splitter is more aligned with your
needs.
