If your original file ends in a cr then Alex's code would end in absolutely
no change. ;-)
That's not what my testing showed (or appeared to show). Here's the
short version of the test script, and the corresponding output
note the first example has a single final CR, the second has no CR and
the third one has multiple CRs, and each is correctly truncated.
(I missed a few test cases here - empty file, single line of data, etc.
but it is only "reasonably tested")
The test stack can be downloaded from
http://www.tweedly.org/deletelastline.rev
(btw - I don't currently have access to a mac, so it's only tested on
Windows. Could that cause the different result for Richard ?)
