Fredrik KuivinenThe message "\ No newline at end of file" which sometimes is produced by diff(1) is locale dependent. We can't assume more than that it begins with "\ ".

For example, given two files, "foo" and "bar", with appropriate contents 'diff -u foo bar' will produce the following output on my system.
--- foo 2005-09-04 18:59:38.000000000 +0200 +++ bar 2005-09-04 18:59:16.000000000 +0200
