Description

Are there any good examples of fs.readSync? I already know how to use readFileSync but need to support an alternate use case that reads larger text files (strings) either line by line or blocks of bytes at a time. I've tried a few different implementations of fs.readSync so far but so far it seems like those implementations aren't working. They aren't throwing errors. They're just reading zero bytes at a time. So I was hoping that there were some good code examples that could show how to use that properly.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing njs-examples repository and its fs.readFileSync examples, then look for the appropriate place to add an fs.readSync example. Done means the repository includes a clear working example for reading large text files line by line or in byte blocks.
