I've rebound ^X^S so that it checks to see that the last character in the
buffer is a linefeed.  It gives me a warning and doesn't save it if it's
not.  If I really need to write a file without a linefeed on the end I use
^X^W.  I seem to have stopped using all those programs that throw away the
last line if it's not terminated with a linefeed, though.

[ Editor's note:  In response to the flurry of messages on EOF handling, I
  added a similar feature to the Twenex Emacs at SCORE that requires
  confirmation when you try to save a file without a CRLF at the end.  Such
  a site-specific change is easy to add to programmable editors, and is a
  very good reason for preferring them over editors that are not programmable.
  Also, note that Eric and I implemented slightly different user interfaces;
  Emacs provides a good laboratory for comparing user interfaces.    /JQJ ]
