+#define wxEOT wxT('\4') // the End-Of-Text control code (used only inside wxTextInputStream)
+
+// If you're scanning through a file using wxTextInputStream, you should check for EOF _before_
+// reading the next item (word / number), because otherwise the last item may get lost.
+// You should however be prepared to receive an empty item (empty string / zero number) at the
+// end of file, especially on Windows systems. This is unavoidable because most (but not all) files end
+// with whitespace (i.e. usually a newline).
