Another, admittedly worse than using a proper editor or fixing
the one you use, way to tackle that problem is to have an empty
"line" at the end of your source code.
Provided that your editor doesn't do trimming, the effect should
be exactly the same as when using a proper editor without
that extra line.

I wonder, though, why is it that so many editors, contrary to the
obvious interpretation, think end-of-line as in-between-lines.
Curious as I am, I would like to hear proper argumentation from
people who think that is how it should be handled.
