Subject: How to read a file binary

Hi,

I have the following problem: When running this program

#include <fstream.h>

int main(void)
{
   unsigned char buff;
   ofstream WriteFile("test.out",ios::bin);
   ifstream ReadFile("test.in",ios::bin);

   while(!ReadFile.eof())
   {
      ReadFile.get(buff);
      WriteFile.put(buff);
      cout << buff;
   }

   return 0;
}

which simply should copy one file to another, it reads only on character 
and then exits. If I open the file in text mode all works well.

Anybody a hint what I'm doing wrong?
