The 'eol' option only works if I also turn on 'binary', but if I use 'binary' I can only write the file using fileformat=unix. I need to write the file using fileformat=dos but without \r\n at the very end of the file, unless it was already there. > > > Currently it seems vim will only let me: > > > > A) Add newlines for no good reason > > It's actually for very good reasons[1] I know there are reasons for having newlines at the end of a file, but I need to avoid changing code unnecessarily.
