Subject: why is "no newline at end of file" a warning?
Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2007 05:07:04 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <46844620.4050902@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello.

gcc (and so many other *nix utilities) often give a warning (sometimes 
even an error) if there is "no newline at end of file". I would like to 
know why this is such a serious issue that it deserves to be called a 
warning (or an error).

Shriramana Sharma.
