== line/record termination ==
 
This might not be the proper forum or time to address the issue of line/record termination,   but not all operating systems terminate a line (or record) with any specific character (or characters).   That information may be contained in a meta structure,   which (may) contain the block length, record length, and type of blocking (if there is blocking), among other information.   It is (or can be) the purpose of the computer programming language (or operating system) to examine the operating system's file system and/or file structure to determine how to read/write lines/records and how they're delineated (if at all).     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 16:18, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
