Hi Tom,

I am a bit surprised to hear that that '\n'
is there unconditionally.  But I am sure
there are more pressing things for you to
work on.  It's something I can live with.

Doesn't look like it --- the final fputc('\n', fout); seems to be
done unconditionally in all the output formats.  I wonder if we should
change that?  I'm afraid it might break programs that are used to it :-(
