Hi, It seems that the .eof() method on file handles can sometimes return true even if there is nothing more to read. This occurs when you have read upto the last byte of a file (e.g. when a readline reads up to the end of a newline, and that newline is the last thing in the file), but not beyond (which seems to be what causes the EOF flag to be set). I'm thinking this is the wrong behaviour? Thoughts and fixes welcome! Jonathan
