in thread Calculated position incorrect when using regex in text file that also contains binary info

So, "a" conclusion might be that Windows (once again) differs from Linux in the way files are handled.

Quite probably. Having no recent experience of MS Windows I'm not in a position to help you further, unfortunately. In your shoes I would try to persist with the SSCCE, however. The fact that it currently fails shows the problem in isolation which might help to solve it. Good luck.
