Hi John,

I always try to get a line of code to be self explanitory. %EOF doesnt do this - whereas %EOF(file) does

I just know some swine will enter another file read just before my %EOF test at some point in the future

I always try to create readable (or "self documenting") code and always use %eof instead of %eof(name), because IMO this is much more readable. It is applying the priniciple of DRY (dont repeat yourself).
