[help-recutils] extra newline created when using recsel and recfmt?

Hi,

when I use the following command:

> recselĀ  -e "Blah = '"blah"'" tmp.rec | recfmt -f tmp.tmpl

on tmp.rec:
> %rec: one
>
> Blah: blah

and tmp.tmpl:
> Line one
>
> And the last line

I get an output file with 4 lines instead of 3:
> Line one
>
> And the last line
>

Is there something I am doing incorrectly? I would very much like to have exactly 3 lines output. I downloaded and compiled the source myself on Ubuntu.

recsel --version
recsel (GNU recutils) 1.5

recfmt --version
recfmt (GNU recutils) 1.5

Thank you for any and all help!
