Inserting a blank line at the end of a .txt file?
Hi there,
I am having this problem:
a) I am uploading a txt file from windows (notepad) with some Gaussian 09 command lines;
b) Gaussian needs in certain command files, that those files have a blank line at the end of the file!
c) I open the command file with vi and no blank line at the of the file!
d) Gaussian gives an error due to that missing blank line!
How can I finish my command file with a blank line?
Thanks in advance! Best,
Luis

produced on standard output. The formatting commands are listed
