The reason I'm interested in \everyeof as well is for using \scantokens
in a context such as:
\def\tempa#1{%
\begingroup
% Some catcode changes
\everyeof{\noexpand}%
\endlinechar-1\relax
\edef\tempb{\scantokens{#1}}%
\expandafter\endgroup
\expandafter\def\expandafter\tempc\expandafter{\tempb}%
}
which fails without the \everyeof setting. That I know of there is no
way to "bundle up" the various components, so without access to
\everyeof, \scantokens is not much use (at least to me).
