             Summary: Reader to support continuation lines
                 Key: IO-464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-464
             Project: Commons IO
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Sebb


The iCal format requires long lines to be wrapped.
This is indicated by starting the next line with a single space

Java manifest files use the same syntax

There are probably other instances of this syntax.

This syntax is trivial to generate, but not as easy to read, as there is only 
indication of the continuation is on the next line. This means that it is 
necessary to use look-ahead to determine if the current line has a continuation.

It would be useful to provide a Reader to support this.
