If NLMake encounters a blank line in a segment file
before reading an EOF character, it will crash the VDM
in Win32 platform, error in DOS.

A check for blank lines that are not commented needs to
be performed so that it while no longer crash or error
depending on platform. This is a serious bug.

Apparently in DOS, it gives an error about invalid
phone or line speed and will ;E the line. The problem
is most serious under Win32. Untested in Linux as of yet.

Perhaps it should ignore blank lines in segment/ctrl
files? If it comes to the actual EOF without seeing an
EOF character (NULL) it should be able to handlle it
better.

    Is this still a problem? If so, on which systems?

    Yes it is. Lack of time and programing skills have put me in
    an on hold stasis.

    DOS and Win32 for sure. Untested on Linux.
