Ya, writeln will not access individual elements of a range if 
there aren't any. So no violations occur.

That's because you're using write*ln*. So even though line is 
empty, you still output a new line.

You can do:

if (!line.length) {
     continue;
}

Inside your while loop after the call to strip.
