Actually, when the egobfi8 interpreter reads in a -1 through getchar, it "changes" that to a 0x00 when it inputs it into the array. So if you feed in the getchar() EOF of -1, you get a 0 in your bf array which you can use to test for EOF in your bf code. (Had to look at the ego code for that, it wasn't obvious). -Goethe
