Removing last blank line

Question

There is a para break at the end of my .csv file. I tried to remove the blank line that is at the end of the file using the following command.

sed -i \'/^$/d\' c         


        

Answer 1

To remove blank lines you can use grep . or sed '/^$/d'

It will remove any blank line in the file. I hope you file does not have any blank lines in the middle but this will work in your case.

cat combined.csv | grep .

or

cat combined.csv | sed '/^$/d'
