Program and particulars below.

When line 27 is commented out, line 26 is output. When line 27 is not commented, line 26 is not output except that if x.file contains a line feed the null line line 26 & line 27 are output. If x.file does not contain a line feed, only line 27 is output.

Does the line feed have an effect on the 'cout <<' of line 26 of the program?

Note. The code is awful and this is an example.
