I've just noticed that its Javadoc is inconsistent/ambiguous:

    /**
     * Returns the number of lines read
     *
     * @return the current-line-number (or -1)
     */

"Number of lines read" - I assume that is zero until the first
complete line has been read, i.e. 0-based.
"Current-line-number" - that seems more like a 1-based numbering scheme
"(or -1)" - cannot occur.

I'll fix that too.

A rename might be in order (it's not part of the public API)
