uname output: Linux mmarkk-work 2.6.35-24-generic-pae #42-Ubuntu SMP Thu

Machine Type: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Bash Version: 4.1
Patch Level: 5
Release Status: release
GOOD CASE:
mma...@mmarkk-work:/tmp$ echo aaa > /tmp/test1
mma...@mmarkk-work:/tmp$ read x < /tmp/test1 && echo success
success
mma...@mmarkk-work:/tmp$ echo $x
aaa
mma...@mmarkk-work:/tmp$
BUGGY CASE:
mma...@mmarkk-work:/tmp$ echo -n bbb > /tmp/test2
mma...@mmarkk-work:/tmp$ read y < /tmp/test2 && echo success
mma...@mmarkk-work:/tmp$ echo $y
bbb
mma...@mmarkk-work:/tmp$
So, if EOF detected but something is read successfully, please do not
report error !
The "dialog" command when writes to --output-fd does not append newline.
so
read result < resultfile || return 1
will fail, but should not (by correct logick).
