Hi!

readline and read are both mentioned on S16, but only readline seems
to be implemented right now.

I understand that handling text files are much more relevant to perl,
but i think handling binary files is as important as text files.

In my case, i want to make a small library to read (and maybe write)
classic doom WAD files.

I know that, right now, i can SLURP whole files on a string, but i
dont think is the right way to do it.
