 +======Synopsis:======
 +$__eof__(<<file descriptor>>)
 +
 +======Technical:======
 +This function tests whether the client is currently at the end of the
 +file pointed to by the given file descriptor.  The only valid input is
 +a file descriptor returned by the $[[open]]() function.
 +
 +======Practical:======
 +This function is used to see if the end of a file has been reached.
 +This is mostly useful while reading a file, such that it can be closed
 +once the end is reached.
 +
 +======Returns:======
 +<file>
 +-1   error, no such file descriptor
 +   not at end of file
 +   end of file reached
 +</file>
