Add a new, simple interface for scanning (probably textual) data, based on a new type called Scanner. It does its own internal buffering, so should be plausibly efficient even without injecting a bufio.Reader. The format of the input is defined by a "split function", by default splitting into lines. Other implemented split functions include single bytes, single runes, and space-separated words. Here's the loop to scan stdin as a file of lines: s := bufio.NewScanner(os.Stdin) for s.Scan() { fmt.Printf("%s\n", s.Bytes()) } if s.Err() != nil { log.Fatal(s.Err()) } While we're dealing with spaces, define what space means to strings.Fields. Fixes #4802. R=adg, rogpeppe, bradfitz, rsc CC=golang-dev https://golang.org/cl/7322088
