    isopen(object) -> Bool

Determine whether an object - such as a stream or timer
-- is not yet closed. Once an object is closed, it will never produce a new event.
However, since a closed stream may still have data to read in its buffer,
use [`eof`](@ref) to check for the ability to read data.
Use the `FileWatching` package to be notified when a stream might be writable or readable.

# Examples
```jldoctest
julia> io = open("my_file.txt", "w+");

julia> isopen(io)
true

julia> close(io)

julia> isopen(io)
false
```
"""

"""
    closewrite(stream)

Shutdown the write half of a full-duplex I/O stream. Performs a [`flush`](@ref)

file. This is not supported by all IO types.

# Examples
```jldoctest
julia> io = Base.BufferStream(); # this never blocks, so we can read and write on the same Task

julia> write(io, "request");

julia> # calling `read(io)` here would block forever

julia> closewrite(io);

```
"""

"""
    readavailable(stream)

Read available buffered data from a stream. Actual I/O is performed only if no
data has already been buffered. The result is a `Vector{UInt8}`.

!!! warning
    The amount of data returned is implementation-dependent; for example it can
    depend on the internal choice of buffer size. Other functions such as [`read`](@ref)
    should generally be used instead.

    eof(stream) -> Bool

Test whether an I/O stream is at end-of-file. If the stream is not yet exhausted, this
function will block to wait for more data if necessary, and then return `false`. Therefore
it is always safe to read one byte after seeing `eof` return `false`. `eof` will return
`false` as long as buffered data is still available, even if the remote end of a connection
is closed.

    read(io::IO, T)

Read a single value of type `T` from `io`, in canonical binary representation.

Note that Julia does not convert the endianness for you. Use [`ntoh`](@ref) or
[`ltoh`](@ref) for this purpose.

    read(io::IO, String)

Read the entirety of `io`, as a `String` (see also [`readchomp`](@ref)).

# Examples
```jldoctest
julia> io = IOBuffer("JuliaLang is a GitHub organization");

julia> read(io, Char)

julia> io = IOBuffer("JuliaLang is a GitHub organization");

"""
    write(io::IO, x)

Write the canonical binary representation of a value to the given I/O stream or file.
Return the number of bytes written into the stream. See also [`print`](@ref) to
write a text representation (with an encoding that may depend upon `io`).

The endianness of the written value depends on the endianness of the host system.
Convert to/from a fixed endianness when writing/reading (e.g. using  [`htol`](@ref) and
[`ltoh`](@ref)) to get results that are consistent across platforms.

You can write multiple values with the same `write` call. i.e. the following are equivalent:

    write(io, x, y...)
    write(io, x) + write(io, y...)

# Examples
Consistent serialization:
```jldoctest
julia> fname = tempname(); # random temporary filename

julia> open(fname,"w") do f
           # Make sure we write 64bit integer in little-endian byte order
           write(f,htol(Int64(42)))
       end
8

julia> open(fname,"r") do f
           # Convert back to host byte order and host integer type
           Int(ltoh(read(f,Int64)))
       end
42
```

Merging write calls:
```jldoctest
julia> io = IOBuffer();

julia> write(io, "JuliaLang is a GitHub organization.", " It has many members.")
56

julia> String(take!(io))
"JuliaLang is a GitHub organization. It has many members."

julia> write(io, "Sometimes those members") + write(io, " write documentation.")
44

julia> String(take!(io))
"Sometimes those members write documentation."
```
User-defined plain-data types without `write` methods can be written when wrapped in a `Ref`:
```jldoctest
julia> struct MyStruct; x::Float64; end

julia> io = IOBuffer()
IOBuffer(data=UInt8[...], readable=true, writable=true, seekable=true, append=false, size=0, maxsize=Inf, ptr=1, mark=-1)

    eachline(io::IO=stdin; keep::Bool=false)

Create an iterable `EachLine` object that will yield each line from an I/O stream
or a file. Iteration calls [`readline`](@ref) on the stream argument repeatedly with
`keep` passed through, determining whether trailing end-of-line characters are
retained. When called with a file name, the file is opened once at the beginning of
iteration and closed at the end. If iteration is interrupted, the file will be
closed when the `EachLine` object is garbage collected.

To iterate over each line of a `String`, `eachline(IOBuffer(str))` can be used.

[`Iterators.reverse`](@ref) can be used on an `EachLine` object to read the lines
in reverse order (for files, buffers, and other I/O streams supporting [`seek`](@ref)),
and [`first`](@ref) or [`last`](@ref) can be used to extract the initial or final
lines, respectively.

# Examples
```jldoctest
julia> write("my_file.txt", "JuliaLang is a GitHub organization.\\n It has many members.\\n");

julia> for line in eachline("my_file.txt")

    countlines(io::IO; eol::AbstractChar = '\\n')
    countlines(filename::AbstractString; eol::AbstractChar = '\\n')

Read `io` until the end of the stream/file and count the number of lines. To specify a file
pass the filename as the first argument. EOL markers other than `'\\n'` are supported by
passing them as the second argument.  The last non-empty line of `io` is counted even if it does not
end with the EOL, matching the length returned by [`eachline`](@ref) and [`readlines`](@ref).

To count lines of a `String`, `countlines(IOBuffer(str))` can be used.

# Examples
```jldoctest
julia> io = IOBuffer("JuliaLang is a GitHub organization.\\n");

julia> countlines(io)
1

julia> io = IOBuffer("JuliaLang is a GitHub organization.");

julia> countlines(io)
1

julia> eof(io) # counting lines moves the file pointer
true

julia> io = IOBuffer("JuliaLang is a GitHub organization.");

julia> countlines(io, eol = '.')
1
```
```jldoctest
julia> write("my_file.txt", "JuliaLang is a GitHub organization.\\n")
36

julia> countlines("my_file.txt")
1

julia> countlines("my_file.txt", eol = 'n')
4

julia> rm("my_file.txt")
