Description Andrew Shark 2021-07-28 19:36:28 UTC
Each text file should have newline at end of file, according to this question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5813311/whats-the-significance-of-the-no-newline-at-end-of-file-log

But automatically created files misses that new line.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Copy these two text lines to clipboard:
first line
second line
2. Open some folder in Dolphin
3. Press ctrl + v shortcut.
4. File name dialog will appear. Enter test.txt.
5. Run `wc -l test.txt`

The output of the command is:
1 test.txt

The output of the command should be:
2 test.txt

A system should not edit anything for the user without him knowing.

The need here is very specific to development, as such you should use development tools (aka formatter...) rather than making the DE a dev-tailer environment.
