v0.7.0

2022-10-01T22:43:44Z

API Breaks

Improve the behavior of the LineReaderAt interface when the final line does not have a newline character. This change is only relevant for clients that define LineReaderAt implementations and should not affect most users of the library. If you use a custom LineReaderAt implementation, please review the documentation and update your implementation to avoid errors (#27).

Fixes

Fix apply errors (unexpected EOF) with files that are multiples of 1024 bytes and have no final newline (#27).
