An eof-of-file doesn't necessarily mean an end-of-stream, and error handling usually requires extra effort to close a port, which is why we usually use functions like `with-input-form-file'. Probably, though, it's mostly that port-reading functions don't normally close the port. > Perhaps there > could be an optional argument that allowed this behavior? An optional keyword argument seems ok to me. _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-dev
