Description:
------------
It would be very very very nice to have a function in php that will find a line in a file and save it to a variable. A function with a name such as "file_get_line" would be good.

Usage would be like:
$line = file_get_line(5);
5, being the line to retrieve. If there's any other arguments you think would be necessary or useful, go ahead, as long as it is capable of doing the basic feature I requested, it's good!

Thank you, hope you implement it!
Have a nice day.

fgets() would do what you want.
