Reclassified.
The manual page for 'file()' does mention this.
But it should be mentionaed for 'exec()' too..(the optional array
output parameter..)

This is just basically an inconsistency between file() and exec()
file() will return the newline on the end of each element in the array,
ie:
$data = file("somefile.txt");
$data[0][ strlen($data[0])-1 ] == "\n"
but exec() doesn't put newlines on it's output:
exec("soemthing", $data);
$data[0][ strlen($data[0])-1 ] != "\n"
At the least, the manual page for file() and/or exec() should state
this behaviour.
