But I would hope it would have at least one newline or it isn't a text file. Text files are files with lines of text and a line of text by definition ends with a newline character. I know that 4.2.2 has this new feature and if that works better for you then great. But it does seem to be stretching things. * don't misbehave (truncate input) for lines of length 2^31 and longer Bob
