> The description and comments were a little confusing. Here is working dialplan to reproduce the issue:
> {noformat}
> exten => 5,1,Verbose(Context: ${CONTEXT} Exten:${EXTEN})
>     same => n,Set(featurefile=/etc/asterisk/testfile.txt)
>     same => n,Set(myList=A,AB,ABC,ABCD,ABCDE,ABCDEF,ABCDEFG,ABCDEFGH)
>     same => n,While($["${SET(rawVar=${SHIFT(myList)})}" != ""])
>     same => n,Verbose(rawVar is set to ${rawVar})
>     same => n,Set(FILE(${featurefile})=${rawVar})
>     same => n,Set(fileVar=${FILE(${featurefile},0,1,l,u)})
>     same => n,Set(hexDump=${SHELL(hd ${featurefile})})
>     same => n,Verbose(Before file: ---${rawVar}--- len ${LEN(${rawVar})} after file: ---${fileVar}--- LEN ${LEN(${fileVar})} hexdump:${hexDump})
>     same => n,EndWhile()
>     same => n,Hangup()
> {noformat}
> When FILE reads the file with more than one character it grabs garbage.
