in thread How 'bout autochomp on for -nE?

I mostly agree. I think -E shouldn't enable autochomp. Otoh for this

It would make more sense to change -lnE to only enable autochomp, not set $\ (since say can be used).

I'm still not sure. What about -lpE? Would that print a newline? What about -l0 -pE or -l0999 -pE or any other separator? Say doesn't work for those, so you have to set $\.
