Thank you guys,

both functions work. Looks like single function (for/or) could be used
if the calling side handles #f, #t and a list.

Another issue:

I am planning to support both Unix and Windows, but have not found
a way to define 'return-linefeed as system-wide default (aside using
global variable):
Whenever one does file-I/O; 'return-linefeed is used as newline.
I do like not to be forced to give the 3rd parameter (return-linefeed)
like below

(in-lines inp 'return-linefeed)
