     * }).on('close', () => {
     *   console.log('Have a great day!');
     *   process.exit(0);
     * });
     * ```
     *
     * ## Example: Read file stream line-by-Line
     *
     * A common use case for `readline` is to consume an input file one line at a
     * time. The easiest way to do so is leveraging the `fs.ReadStream` API as
     * well as a `for await...of` loop:
     *
     * ```js
     * import fs from 'node:fs';
     * import readline from 'node:readline';
     *
     * async function processLineByLine() {
     *   const fileStream = fs.createReadStream('input.txt');
     *
     *   const rl = readline.createInterface({
     *     input: fileStream,
     *     crlfDelay: Infinity,
     *   });
     *   // Note: we use the crlfDelay option to recognize all instances of CR LF
     *   // ('\r\n') in input.txt as a single line break.
     *
     *   for await (const line of rl) {
     *     // Each line in input.txt will be successively available here as `line`.
     *     console.log(`Line from file: ${line}`);
     *   }
     * }
     *
     * processLineByLine();
     * ```
     *
     * Alternatively, one could use the `'line'` event:
     *
     * ```js
     * import fs from 'node:fs';
     * import readline from 'node:readline';
     *
     * const rl = readline.createInterface({
     *   input: fs.createReadStream('sample.txt'),
     *   crlfDelay: Infinity,
     * });
     *
     * rl.on('line', (line) => {
     *   console.log(`Line from file: ${line}`);
     * });
     * ```
     *
     * Currently, `for await...of` loop can be a bit slower. If `async` / `await` flow and speed are both essential, a mixed approach can be applied:
     *
     * ```js
     * import { once } from 'node:events';
     * import { createReadStream } from 'node:fs';
     * import { createInterface } from 'node:readline';
     *
     * (async function processLineByLine() {
     *   try {
     *     const rl = createInterface({
     *       input: createReadStream('big-file.txt'),
     *       crlfDelay: Infinity,
     *     });
     *
     *     rl.on('line', (line) => {
     *       // Process the line.
     *     });
     *
     *     await once(rl, 'close');
     *
     *     console.log('File processed.');
     *   } catch (err) {
     *     console.error(err);
     *   }
     * })();
