Well, it's counter my experience with other scripting langs, where separate
line-reads do not affect each other, but it is fine.
My only reason for raising this is:
a) is this what was intended?
b) if so, could the docs be clarified?

The trouble with the doc. is that it only gives a one-line example (with no
comma at the end of the line, since it is not required with a one-line file).
IMHO if the following was added to the descrip:
Note that data read by the #read directive must have comma delimiters between
values [ (even when a newlines separates the values, with each line processed by
a separate call to #read) ]
things would be a little clearer.
