  There's a "type Socket_Type(Max_Line_Length:Positive) is new [socket]
with associated Get_Line that does
    -- Return Line(Line'first .. Last)
    -- Input up through LF if LF occurs,
    -- Line(Line'range) if no LF seen,
    -- or Input up through last received char if timeout or hangup
in the spider program Finder at www.adapower.com/os/finder.html
Is that the same functionality?  (Finder also has package Te_Text_Line_Sockets,
which also handles "chunked" http encoding.)
