I think I misinterpretted this when replying to your post.  You are right
in that if it's EOF, I am trying to process it and it's not working so
well because it's reading in a char and EOF is an int.

I tried an fgetc() and that worked just fine.

Sorry for the confusion.  I didn't exactly understand what you were saying
here the first time.

Thanks a bunch for the help!  I really appreciate it!

Best regards,
John
