Summary

This function read from a file descriptor and return a line when reaching an EOF or '\n'.

This project is part of 42 Paris' curriculum. You can check the full subject in the subject pdf included in this repo.

How It Work

The function read a specified number of bytes from the file descriptor, using the GNL_BUFFER variable. If a EOF or a '\n' (new line) has been found, the function store the rest of the buffer and return a line.

The bonus can manage multiple file descriptor open at the same time, but if the function is stopped while the end has not been reached, leaks can occur. This is why the mandatory version is instead use in my Libft.
