+NAME
+     rnl – remove trailing newlines
+
+SYNOPSIS
+     rnl [-01sz] [files ...]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+     rnl removes trailing newlines from the specified input files.  The files
+     are modified in-place!
+
+     When used without arguments, rnl copies standard input to standard
+     output, removing trailing newlines.
+
+     The options are as follows:
+
+     -0      Remove all trailing newlines.
+
+     -1      Remove just one trailing newline.
+
+     -s      Strip all but one newline at the end.  (This is the default.)
+
+     -z      Remove final NUL bytes instead of newlines.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+     The rnl utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
