end-of-line input (`\n`, `\r`, or `\r\n`). This usually occurs when the user
presses <kbd>Enter</kbd> or <kbd>Return</kbd>.

The `'line'` event is also emitted if new data has been read from a stream and
that stream ends without a final end-of-line marker.

The listener function is called with a string containing the single line of
received input.
