      all tests now work on unix and windows

1.01 Tue Oct 7 01:31:40 EDT 2003 (not released to cpan)

      fixed bug in test script in close_test. the write_file fails on
      winblows since the file is still open from the main loop. now the
      file is closed explicitly and tests added to cover that.
                - Peter J. Acklam <pjacklam@online.no>

      readline returns undef on a sysseek error so it fails cleanly on pipes

      added eof() method
                - from Antti S Lankila <alankila@cc.helsinki.fi>

      added flag to new() that marks the record separator as a regular
      expression. that used to be the default behavior and now the
      default is that is it a plain string like $/.
                - from Robin Houston <robin@kitsite.com>
