Bug#931359: Ruins newlines around comments and end of file

File: /usr/bin/js_beautify

Despite preserve newlines default, it
* ruins newlines near comments.
* rips up newline at end of file.

$ cat k.js
// comment 1

// comment 2

var a = 1;
$ js_beautify k.js
// comment 1
// comment 2
var a = 1;$ js_beautify k.js|diff k.js -
2d1
< 
4,5c3
< 
< var a = 1;
---
> var a = 1;
\ No newline at end of file
$

P.S., on the man pages

       $js_source_code = <<'EOF';
         a = 12;
         {return '\\w+';} EOF

shouldn't EOF be on a new line?


By the way, js_beautify --preserve_newlines is permanently on with no way to turn it off.

P.S., you only preserve one newline of
var
a = 1;
var a
= 1;
