Hello.

Among other things, this script is suppose to add an empty line
at the bottom of a file.

But somehow it always removes the first line in a text file,
how do I stop this?

#!/usr/local/bin/bash
#
#   Remove CRLF, trailing whitespace and double lines.

#
for file in `find -s . -type f -not -name ".*"`; do
	if file -b "$file" | grep -q 'text'; then
		echo >> "$file"
		perl -i -pe 's/\015$//' "$file"
		perl -i -pe 's/[^\S\n]+$//g' "$file"
		
		perl -pi -00 -e 1 "$file"
		echo "$file: Done"
	fi
done

Thanks,
Vaaf
