Subject: JRT Pascal file I/O bug?

Whenever I attempt to do sequential I/O in text mode with JRT Pascal, I
am unable to read a character at a time.  Whenever I read 1 character, the
next character returned by a word request is the first character after
the next space.  Thus, two read requests on the string "THIS WORD" in
a file would return T and W.

The same code on another system produced "THIS WORD".  Any fixes?
