Comment (by tscholl2):
Thanks for the comment.
I wasn't sure about the kind of use case this class gets. You mentioned in
a comment that you sometimes use files on the order of gigabytes. I
thought it might be useful to have easy access to a method which you only
need a stream in case you don't have a disk file (for example a memory
mapped file object, a StringIO file object, or some kind of stream from
stdin). I don't know if you can open those with `fopen`.
However, if you think that most people just read from a file on the disk,
then I could easily remove the `load` function.
As for the `read` name, I used `read` because there was already a `write`
method and it seemed complementary. Do you think `parse` is a better name?
