public final class TextFileIn

extends java.io.BufferedReader

Since TextFileIn extends BufferedReader and adds nothing more than a convenient constructor, all other member functions are identical to BufferedReader.

Example usage of TextFileIn:

 TextFileIn in = new TextFileIn("file.txt");
 boolean done = false ;
 while ( ! done )
 {
     String s = in.readLine();
     if ( s == null )
     {
         done = true ;
     }
     else
     {
         System.out.println( s );
     }
 }
 in.close();
