Kevin,

I think it occurs under windows too but can't check at the moment.
Basically (excuse the pun) occurs when there is NO carriage return at the
end of the last line.



On UV/AIX .



in a pc editor (Notepad.exe) typed following 3 lines:



   program test.compile.with.no.final.cr

   crt system(99)

   * last line - comment with no CR - the file stops here >|



Transferred it (ascii ftp) to a basic lib folder under unix.

Then start to compile it and it stops until break key hit.



Interestingly the following variation:

   crt system(99)

   end

compiles but vlists without the final character of the line.

Eg if last line is:

   'end' => 'en'

   'end ;* comments' => 'end ;* comment'



Cheers,

Stuart
