All you need is for the last line to have a CR/LF terminator.  If you
use notepad, it is pretty common to sneak by with the last line missing
the CR/LF.  I read the crafty.rc file, but when I read the last line with
no CR/LF, it sticks in the buffer and whatever comes in next gets concatenated
to it.  Which wrecks the last command in the crafty.rc file, as well as the
first command sent after that, usually the "xboard" command.  That will
generally make things hang.
