Am I missing something, or is the ST-BASIC EOF function totally useless?

I tried to read a file upto the end and I wanted to detect eof by means of the
eof function. If I don't include the "on error" statement I get a "You reached
end-of-file" error at line 170, but if I do include the "on error" statement,
then I end up in an infinite loop. 

Here is my ST BASIC program:

100   on error goto 210
110   line%=0
120   open "I",#1,"file.ext"
130   line input #1,buf$
140   while not eof(1)
150       line%=line%+1
160       print line%,buf$
170       line input #1,buf$
180   wend
190   close #1
200   end
210   print "Error";err;"at line";erl        <--- just to see what is going on
220   resume next
