I'm having a problem with the Apollo/Domain 6.8 C compiler. My C source
file is missing a line-feed character at the end of the file. The C compiler
compiles everything fine except at the end when it comes back with an error
message that says:

********* Line 43 of "myfile.c" [Error #014] Unrecognizable item "/EOF/";
	  syntax error in declaration. 
	
The compiler expects a <LF> after every line, but the last line in my source
file is missing a <LF> character. It would seem to me that a <LF> or an <EOF>
character would be an acceptable line/record terminator for the parser ??

Your "email" feedback will be highly appreciated.
