New submission from Roy Smith:

The following code, when run with "--help", omits the trailing newlines from 
the epilog.  It should just emit the string verbatim.  If the developer didn't 
want the extra newlines, he/she wouldn't have put them there.


import argparse
parser = 
argparse.ArgumentParser(formatter_class=argparse.RawDescriptionHelpFormatter,
                                 epilog="foo\n\n")
parser.parse_args()
