Vim was born from a POSIX world and so it expects lines to end with
newlines. I just tested Christian's advice and Vim readily does
what you want:
bash$ printf "one" > no_eol.txt
bash$ echo set binary > testvimrc
bash$ vim -u testvimrc no_eol.txt
:0put='zero'
:x
bash$ xxd no_eol.txt
[output that shows no trailing newline]
Take Christian's advice: just put "set binary" in your vimrc and be
done with it. Anything more is just trolling the list.
