Summary: mclient: unexpected behaviour of Ctrl-Z

Initial Comment:
An ADT group has reported that, on Win XP, mclient handles Ctrl-Z differently 
than what Win XP does.  I'm not sure if this is an expected behaviour of 
mclient, or a missing feature.  Steps to reproduce:

I. use query Q1 from page 
http://monetdb.cwi.nl/projects/monetdb/XQuery/QuickTour/Books/index.html 

II. Copy the text of the query and paste it to XQuery client console window. 
(Windows XP)

III. Put the ^Z character (by pressing Ctrl-Z or F6) on the same line as the 
query text ends ( i.e. } </bib> ^Z  )

IV. Press ENTER. See that the cursor simply moves to new line (query is not 
submitted).

V. Press ENTER once again. Prompt more> appears.

VI. Compare with functioning of e.g. WinXP shell command copy con 1.txt. It 
handles ^Z on the last line correctly.

Hi Stefan,

I overlooked your comment one this point.  I printed the e-mail on paper,
but the layout makes it difficult to distinguish your text from the
students' text.

I also expect Ctrl-Z to behave the same as Ctrl-D.  Without having read
your comment, I was wondering if this standard feature is different on
Windows, of Windows has just extended this feature to also handle Ctrl-Z at
the end of non-empty line.  Now I think the second might be true.

I'm closing this bug as invalid.

Message:
IMHO this is a (standard) feature:
"end-of-document" (CRTL-D / CTRL-Z) needs to be the only content of a
line.

(Just try what CRTL-D does on Linux in the same case ...)
(See also my reply to the respective ADT group's email / report.)
