Re: [racket] exception instead of EOF?

2011-12-27 Thread Dmitry Pavlov
John, Matthew, Thanks for your suggestions. I have chosen Matthew's one, as it seems to be more general. I only had to cancel the peek operation filtering, as I sometimes use (eof-object? (peek-byte)) to test for EOF (is there any other way?), so throwing an exception in that case is not desirabl
