IM displays newline as it should, since it is actually present in the file. I was confused by vi, which doesn't show the last newline :)
Description: IM displays log file content incorrectly, as it tries to read the eof character. Usually it is treated as newline. Because IM thinks that eof is a character it shows all info from the file shifted on one char. E.g.: mysql> show mysqld log general 1; +------+ | Log | +------+ | | +------+ How to repeat: issue the above command Suggested fix: Don't read eof to the buffer.
