  • I have created this tag because reading lines from the standard input stream is a basic task found in many programming languages. I have also noticed that the [tag exists on SO](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/console.readline), but this is only to have a rough idea if the concept makes sense to more people (we do not have to copy their tags).

  • I see the following options:
  • - scrap the tag
  • - rename the tag to make sense for more frameworks (suggestions needed)
  • - keep the tag as it is, but remove it from the [indicated question](https://software.codidact.com/posts/281148) since it does not make sense to have it
