    1. [techspeak] The out-of-band value returned by C's sequential
    character-input functions (and their equivalents in other environments)
    when end of file has been reached. This value is usually -1 under C
    libraries postdating V6 Unix, but was originally 0. DOS hackers think EOF
    is ^Z, and a few Amiga hackers think it's ^\.

    Transmission) character) that is mapped by the terminal driver into an
    end-of-file condition.

    3. Used by extension in non-computer contexts when a human is doing
    something that can be modeled as a sequential read and can't go further. ?
    Yeah, I looked for a list of 360 mnemonics to post as a joke, but I hit EOF
    pretty fast; all the library had was a JCL manual.? See also EOL.
