Bug Description
The end-of-line character (lcs-eol, $ by default) is displayed at the end of file (EOF), no matter if the file actually ends with a newline.
To Reproduce
- Create a file without a newline at EOF
echo -n foo > bar
- Run
vim --clean bar
- Enable list mode
:set list
Neither disabling the fixeol setting (:set nofixeol), nor starting Vim in binary mode (vim --clean -b bar) affects this behavior.
Expected behavior (edited)
There should be no EOL character (i.e. $) being displayed.
- There should be a
lcs-eof item (eof:c) added to listchars
- that is not set by default and
- that will replace the
eol:c character on a file's incomplete last line,
- if and only if
- a character for
eof:c was configured (e.g. set to ~) and
- the
eol option is false and
- ( the
fixeol option is false, or
- the
binary option is true )

The presence of a trailing newline character can be of importance especially in binary mode.
