the closest thing i can think of is file() or<?php
$data = implode('', file('foo.bar'));
$data = preg_split("\r?\n?", $data);
?>

[bokeh]

<?php
$fp = fopen($file, "r+"); // open file
while (!feof($fp)) { // while not end of file
$line = fgets($fp, 4096); // get line (max 4096 bytes)
// do something with $line
}
fclose($fp); // Close file
?>

There are other functions too which can be used to move the file pointer to different parts of the file. 'r' and 'r+' start with the file pointer right at the start of the file.
