I think EOF depends on the application/OS...
Try chr(26) [Control-Z] and chr(4) [Control-D]
Or have I just been using too many Un*x programs that can't agree on how to
indicate the end of my typing? :-^
If those don't work, try everything below 32.
Well, okay, I *know* it's not 9, 10, or 13 :-)
If all else fails, take a file that works, and get PHP to read it char by
char...
Hey, maybe you just need a newline at the end!
"\n" (aka chr(13))
Or, in Windoze, "\r\n" (aka chr(10) . chr(13))
