What a bizzare question. Why do you ask Ari? Easy to test.
If the last line contains an important record, but no termination, then
you risk some program failing to read that line. Same with any config
file. It depends on the code which reads the records.

And BTW, in Unix, lines are terminated by a linefeed, not CR.
