       NAME
             line - read one line

       SYNOPSIS
             line

       DESCRIPTION
             line copies one line (up to a newline) from the standard input
             and writes it on the standard output.  It returns an exit code
             of 1 on EOF and always prints at least a newline.  It is often
             used within shell files to read from the user's terminal.

             The LC_CTYPE environment variable defines the processing of
             the codesets used in the input file. [See LANG in environ(5).]
