(hey, this one is a genuine bug - I'm not just making work for you :))

1. Set the items of a "List of Items" to be: some,things&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (with no newline on the end)

2. Set the list separator to be comma

3. Save the project, close, reload.

4. There is now an extra newline on the end.

&nbsp;

This has probably always been like that, but "skip blank entries" ignored it when the separator was a newline. But with a comma separator, now the newline gets tacked onto the last entry, causing some really confusing error messages. In my case, a "check file exists" failed because it was looking for a file with a newline on the end...

Debatable whether "skip blank entries" should skip newlines when the separator is a comma...probably not (the way it is now).
