One annoying thing about it however is that for w2k use,
Control-D causes "End_of_File" to occur, whether or not
it was the first character entered on a line or not.

Under *NIX/*BSD, the end of file character is only special
at the start of the line (or not active at all). This
means that Get_Immediate cannot return ^D when you want
it to :<  AFAIK, under w2k.  Note however, that ^Z _is_
readable, which usually causes EOF to windoze/DOS progs.
