Hi
I am using a program compiled with the g77 fortran compiler to read
files. I discovered that g77 does not read the last line of a file if
it is not terminated by the EOL-character(s).
Some posters in the mingw mailing list finds it to be a problem that
an editor allows this. Is is so? And, moreover, can I have a setting
in an emacs mode that forces a line break before end of file?

Setting the variable require-final-newline to the appropriate value
should do it.
I like
(setq require-final-newline 'ask)

Just for the record, Emacs does the correct thing in f90 and fortran
mode by default.

I see. It is only for the mode I have written I didn't know that g77
programs did not read it as most other compilers, e.g., gfortran, g95.
