#79: File-position at start of file is wrong --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: rtoy | Owner: somebody Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Core | Version: 2013-03-a Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Let {{{foo}}} be an file of latin1 characters. Then

{{{ (with-open-file (s "foo" :external-format :latin1) (print (file-position s)) (read-char s) (print (file-position s))) }}}

prints

{{{ 512 513 }}}

This is totally unexpected. I would expect 0 and 1 to be printed.

If {{{foo}}} has utf8 encoding then

{{{ (with-open-file (s "foo" :external-format :utf8) (print (file-position s)) (read-char s) (print (file-position s))) }}}

prints something like

{{{ 512 1 }}}

I would expect 0 to be printed instead of 512.
