EOLN

 The EOLN function tests for the end-of-line marker within a text
 file and returns a Boolean value.

 Syntax:

    EOLN [[( file_variable )]]

 The 'file_variable' is the name of a  file  variable  associated
 with a text file.  If you omit the name of the file, the default
 is INPUT.

 The file must be in inspection mode and EOF  must  return  FALSE
 before EOLN is called.  EOLN leaves the file in inspection mode.

 The Boolean EOLN function returns TRUE when the file pointer  is
 positioned  after  the  last character in a line.  When the EOLN
 function  returns  TRUE,  the  file  buffer  contains  a   blank
 character.

 The EOLN function returns FALSE when the last component  in  the
 line  is  read  into the file buffer.  Another character must be
 read to cause EOLN to return TRUE and to cause the  file  buffer
 to  be  positioned  at the end-of-line marker following the last
 character of the line.  If  you  use  the  EOLN  function  on  a
 nontext file, an error occurs.

 See the "HP Pascal Language Reference  Manual"  for  a  complete
 description of the EOLN function.
