--- Prints a formatted debug message if the current verbosity level is greater
-- than or equal to a given level.
-- 
-- This is a convenience wrapper around
-- <code>nmap.print_debug_unformatted</code>. The first optional numeric
-- argument, <code>verbosity</code>, is used as the verbosity level necessary
-- to print the message (it defaults to 1 if omitted). All remaining arguments
-- are processed with Lua's <code>string.format</code> function.
-- @param level Optional verbosity level.
-- @param fmt Format string.
-- @param ... Arguments to format.

-- @param text String to split.
-- @return Array of substrings without the separating pattern.

--- Return a wrapper closure around a socket that buffers socket reads into
-- chunks separated by a pattern.
-- 
-- This function operates on a socket attempting to read data. It separates the
-- data by <code>sep</code> and, for each invocation, returns a piece of the
-- separated data. Typically this is used to iterate over the lines of data
-- received from a socket (<code>sep = "\r?\n"</code>). The returned string
-- does not include the separator. It will return the final data even if it is
-- not followed by the separator. Once an error or EOF is reached, it returns
-- <code>nil, msg</code>. <code>msg</code> is what is returned by
-- <code>nmap.receive_lines</code>.
-- @param socket Socket for the buffer.
-- @param sep Separator for the buffered reads.
-- @return Data from socket reads or <code>nil</code> on EOF or error.
-- @return Error message, as with <code>receive_lines</code>.
