First thanks for your input David. Well I know the problem is really 
awkward.

When I load a plain-text file, the parser begins its job correctly, but 
then a line isn't properly retrieved from the file.
So the parser ends in a "Error" state. I've also noticed that the faulty 
line is always the last. In fact, the parser tries to load a line that 
doesn't exist.

Could this be related to EOF encoding or something related?
