    Hi Mike,

    FILE_LINEINPUT presumes CRLF end of line, while FILELINE_LINEINPUT accepts CRLF or CR or LF.

    Well,

    the main different is the module and the purpose the module was developed.

    FILE module is a general file module working on many kind of files (text and binary) under Windows OS.

    FILELINE module is a module dedicated to text files where you do not know the system where they comes so you are not sure about line terminators: CRLF, CR, LF. This module is specific to this purpose: implements keywords that will let programmer to easily parse text files sequentially reading lines regardless what end of line delimiter is found inside them.

    The 2 modules are not interchangeable and cover different targets tasks. FILELINE maitains an internal structure for each open file that is not the same as in FILE module. This structure is used internally to manage line termination and other stuff.
