If I send a header-only msg without 2 CRs at the end, I die under the header-parser with a non-numeric arg NIL.  This might be caused by TEdit''s cretinous (yes I know who did it) returning NIL at EOF; would you prefer I errored out for you to catch?'

Absolutely.  BIN at the end of a stream should always apply (and return the result from) the stream''s ENDOFSTREAMOP.'

gets an end of stream error. Attempt to ^ out of error didn''t work either, got a DUMMY.FOR.ERRORSET - UNDEFINED CAR OF FORM (which in itself is a problem.)'
