The idea is to append a `\n` if there isn't one in the format string. ```shell % vcztools query -f '%AC' vcz_test_cache/sample.vcf.vcz ......1,1.. % bcftools query -f '%AC' tests/data/vcf/sample.vcf.gz . . . . . . 1,1 . . ``` This was introduced in bcftools 1.18; there's some discussion at https://github.com/samtools/bcftools/issues/1969 We should add the `-N, --disable-automatic-newline` flag at the same time so users can suppress this behaviour if desired.
