missingnewline

missingnewline

Prints a "🚫" character and adds a newline if the cursor is not in column 1. You can use it in your shell prompt to tidy up after commands that output some text without a trailing newline.

You can install this into your ~/.bashrc, for example:

declare -a PROMPT_COMMAND
if [ -x "${HOME}/go/bin/missingnewline" ]
then
  PROMPT_COMMAND+=("${HOME}/go/bin/missingnewline")
fi
