But you're quite happy with twice as many tests on %EOF instead of a
priming read? Let's see, the priming read form of loop has no
additional run-time overhead therefore must be more efficient (i.e.,
fewer tests, less CPU, less resource usage) than a test of EOF at the
start of every loop iteration plus a test on EOF part way through
each loop iteration.
Last, and only, comment on this ridiculous thread.
