If you can produce a debug log of the *errorneous* computation, that 
would be most helpful. I cannot reproduce your problem here, your script 
works fine 100% of the time over here (with Q 7.3, that is).

In any case, if you get that 'cat <<File>>' response you mentioned 
earlier, something is going severely wrong in the interpreter; your 
definition should *never* return that value. It should either bail out 
with an "error in conditional" if feof F fails to evaluate, or return 
(). So if the problem persists, it's most likely an obscure bug in the 
interpreter, and I'd appreciate any info that could help me to find out 
what's going on there.

BTW, what system are you running Q on?

Cheers,
Albert
