Thanks, that worked. 

This is not just for testing purposes. My piece of build.xml looks like
this:

                <concat append="true" destfile="testing.jad">${attrib}
                        <filterchain>
                                <tokenfilter>
                                        <replacestring from="||" 
to="${line.separator}"/>
                                        <trim/>
                                        <linetokenizer/>
                                </tokenfilter>
                        </filterchain>
                </concat>

${attrib} is loaded with a string from a file that contains "||" as a marker
for build.xml to know that this is a new line. But curiously, the output
file testing.jad contains 2 spaces after the last line. I can't figure out
where they are getting inserted. <trim> does not seem to get rid of them.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help.
