   "Cargo cult" ... perhaps an apt description  :-) CP/M did it
   and so DOS, pretty much a straight-up CP/M rip-off (just
   made 'pip' live), copied it without a thought.

   OTOH ... there were and still are a lot of systems and file
   schemes out there so an "official EOF" char for text files
   isn't the worst idea. CP/M isn't quite dead, variants live
   on in the embedded sector and you can still buy brand-X
   Z80s ... what if I want to bring a DOS file into it and
   there's no Ctl-Z ??? I don't remember about Amiga-OS and
   BeOS or C64 text files but people DO still use these things
   or emulated versions for various reasons.
