It's the input, not the output. It does this even when you set the output buffer really high. The man page doesn't mention a #0, and the behaviour is the same on Linux and FreeBSD so I assume intentional. > And doesn't a text file have a unicode marker at the start ? It goes wrong before I/O, and the input is not unicode but text in a codepage. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
