i find that when i do c-c ' on a source block, it either strips the final newline in the editing buffer or adds an unwanted blank line in the source block. i like to have final newlines in all of my buffers, including editing buffers. what setting allows this without introducing a blank line at the end of a source block? thanks.

[this is why i mentioned the blank lines. both settings of this
variable fail. one adds blank lines and the other removes the final
newline.]

But I know what you are talking about, since I had these problems with Outorg too - whitespace changes in the conversion process between programming language mode and org-mode although no editing at all took place. The following chain of actions should not change the original (say emacs-lisp) buffer: 1. M-# # (outorg-edit-as-org) in emacs-lisp buffer 2. 2x C-c ' on emacs-lisp src-block 3. M-# in *outorg-edit-buffer* since only 4 conversions but no editing at all took place. But depending on your config (or the org defaults) and maybe org/outorg bugs indentation and newlines might have been added removed. In outorg I have e.g. ,---- | outorg-remove-trailing-blank-lines | outorg-unindent-active-source-blocks `---- to deal with this issue. IIRC I always first remove all trailing-blank-lines, and then add one. Isn't that even an 'upstream' issue? It seems Emacs itself inserts trailing blank lines in buffers if they are missing, at least I had to deal with this in the outorg conversion process. I vaguley remember having read something about 'by default every buffer should end with a trailing blank line, and this is enforced by Emacs', but could not find any info about this nor related config vars. > On 7/25/14, Thorsten Jolitz <tjolitz@gmail.com> wrote: >> Samuel Wales <samologist@gmail.com> writes: >> >>> i find that when i do c-c ' on a source block, it either strips the >>> final newline in the editing buffer or adds an unwanted blank line in >>> the source block. >>> >>> i like to have final newlines in all of my buffers, including editing >>> buffers. what setting allows this without introducing a blank line at >>> the end of a source block? >> >> ,----[ C-h v org-src-strip-leading-and-trailing-blank-lines RET ] >> | org-src-strip-leading-and-trailing-blank-lines is a variable defined >> | in `org-src.el'.

if you try it you will understand that it is broken.

I can't reproduce this.
With (setq org-src-strip-leading-and-trailing-blank-lines nil) there
is no change in the number of trailing newlines.
With (setq org-src-strip-leading-and-trailing-blank-lines t), blank
lines at the beginning and end of an *Org Src* editing buffer are
stripped away.
This is Org-mode version 8.3beta (release_8.3beta-74-g16e21a).
Hopefully someone can provide a reproducible recipe.
Thanks,
