I have heard there is a DOS utility available (somewhere) that appends
an end-of-file (^Z) to any file that is closed without having one.

I am in urgent need of such a utility.  It would be used for properly
terminating a plot file which is being sent across a Lan Man X network.  Which
plot file, BTW, never makes it because Lan Man thinks it doesn't end.

Any names, phone numbers or leads would be greatly appreciated.
