Is there any way to prevent the ^Z from being added to a file?

I have my setting for F_EOF_PROC = 0. Should it be 1? But that would seem to prevent an embedded ^Z from being used.

Thanks,
Walt

You could set up a File Close Macro. The easiest way would be
adapting the example described in the programming guide, section
"Event Macros" (p. 108 of the current edition).

You do not mention what version you are using.

I have looked at a number of files created under Vedit, and none have ^z.

These are standard Vedit installations.

Version 6.10.2
Every buffer has a ^Z at the end. I've looked at a couple files and the ^Z is not in the file, but the display makes that a tad disconcerting.
