First of all, what you should expect is a space rather than a
newline. That's how text files work. (You can test EOLn to
differentiate it from a real space.) If you want to read characters
directly, maybe a `file of Char' is better suited than `Text'.

But, of course, 2 spaces is wrong. I'm fixing it (will be uploaded
soon, gpc-20010422). Thanks for the report (george1.pas).
