EPICS server won't boot when there is no newline at the ending of st.cmd

Hi,

    I've been dealing with a bug for several days. I used my own st.cmd with modbusApp. The ioc shell did appear but the welcome words of EPICS like:

Starting iocInit

############################################################################

## EPICS R3.16.2-DEV

## EPICS Base built Dec 27 2018

############################################################################

iocRun: All initialization complete

are missing. The EPICS server does not boot and i can't approach pvs by caget and caput.

    Now I find the reason. There was no newline after the `iocInit` command in my st.cmd. When I add a newline at the ending of st.cmd, It works.

    So, is this a bug? Why is a new line needed at the ending of `st.cmd`?

Thank you,

Jasper
