[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Read from file, write to file

Believe it or not, HC actually DOES have an end of file marker.  The
following script works fine for me.

on doIt
  read from file <fileName> until empty
  put the number of chars in it
end doIt

When writing to a file, I use option charactors as end-of-field markers.
I also use them when reading files into a stack.
