Try `C-h v require-final-newline': --- Documentation: Whether to add a newline automatically at the end of the file. A value of t means do this only when the file is about to be saved. A value of `visit' means do this right after the file is visited. A value of `visit-save' means do it at both of those times. Any other non-nil value means ask user whether to add a newline, when saving. A value of nil means don't add newlines. Certain major modes set this locally to the value obtained from `mode-require-final-newline'. You can customize this variable. --- HTH, Štěpán _______________________________________________ implementations-list mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/implementations-list
