Bug in ST Basic

It appears that LINE INPUT from a file in ST Basic ignores the first byte
of a file.  On my system, this program types out all the input file except
for its first character, and bombs on an end of file error at the end of the
file.

	10 OPEN "I",1,"INPUT.FIL"
	20 WHILE NOT EOF(1)
	30 LINE INPUT #1,X$
	40 PRINT X$
	50 WEND
	60 CLOSE 1
	70 END
