I've got a program here which works fine on Linux but has started to fail on Windows after running fine for years. This doesn't appear to depend on the version of Lazarus, version of FPC or version of Windows, but since I've now got the source in local svn I can see that the earliest version I checked in (r1) works while the next one (r2) doesn't.

This used to work, but what I'm now seeing is that when running on Windows it hangs at that Eof() until it sees ^Z<cr>
You *could* try to set CtrlZMarksEof to False (which is set to True for Windows), but I don't know whether that will really help you...
Alternatively, does Windows have anything equivalent to IsATTY() or Do_IsDevice() that I could use as a guard around the failing Eof()?
There is no IsATTY function for Windows, but a Do_IsDevice exists (internal to the RTL) which basically checks whether the handle stored in the file rec is one of the three I/O handles (StdInputHandle, StdOutputHandle or StdErrorHandle).
