I routinely do.  My tcsh works (almost) like EDT.  Here's my piece of
code in which I handle this on Unix:

#include <termio.h>
#ifdef __GNUC__
#define term_cc_ term_cc__
#endif
int term_cc_( void ) {

   struct termio term;
   int status;
   
   if( (status = ioctl( 0, TCGETA, &term )) != 0 ) {
      perror( "term_cc" );
      exit( status );
   }
   
   return term.c_cc[VEOF];
   
}

To be used like here:


	character*(*) function eofchar()
C ***
C ******************************************************************************
C ***
C ***	Returns current EOF character.
C ***
C ***	19-OCT-1993 17:01:14.00		ML / IoA Cambridge
C ***
C ******************************************************************************
C ***
	implicit none

	integer term_cc
        integer cc

	if( len(eofchar) .ge. 6 ) then

	   cc = term_cc()
	   if( cc.lt. 32 ) then
	      eofchar = 'CTRL/'//char( cc + 64 )
	   else
	      eofchar = char( cc )
	   end if

	else
	   eofchar = '>err<'

	end if

	end


And for chuckles:


#ifdef CURSES
#include <curses.h>
#include <term.h>
#else
#include <termcap.h>
#endif
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void eofexit_( void ) {
   
   char bp[1024], *escstr[1], Escstr[30], *term;
   
   escstr[0] = Escstr;
   
   term = getenv("TERM");
   if( term != NULL && *term != '\0' && tgetent( bp, term ) != 0 ) {
      tputs( tgetstr( "mr", escstr ), 1, &putchar );
      printf( " Exit " );
      tputs( tgetstr( "me", escstr ), 1, &putchar );

   } else {
      printf( "*Exit*" );
   }
   printf( "\n" );
   fflush( stdout );
}
