# Example script for removing trailing blank lines of code from a perl script
# This is from the examples/ directory of the perltidy distribution and may
# be modified as needed. 

# This was written in response to RT #118553, "leave only one newline at end of file".
# Adding the requested feature to perltidy itself would have very undesirable
# side-effects when perltidy is operated from within an editor. So it is best
# done with a separate filter script on entire files.

# usage:
# delete_ending_blank_lines.pl myfile.pl >myfile.new
# delete_ending_blank_lines.pl <myfile.pl >myfile.new
