In the underlying C API, (char)255 == (char)-1 == EOF. Regards, Malcolm
But I think the underlying C API is actually int, and char 255 is a Unicode char. Anyway, I should be able to make some progress on it in the next few days.
The example works fine under Unix, BTW.
(Just a WAG, but) Perhaps this is not due to OS but different compiler defaults, because: http://c-faq.com/stdio/getcharc.html "Whether plain char is signed or unsigned is implementation- defined." ( http://www.dreamsongs.com/WorseIsBetter.html leaps suddenly to mind. . . )
