sam is happy with lines that don't end in newlines; it warns when
you write them out, but otherwise leaves them alone. The 'peculiar
properties' are probably that '$' does not match the end of a line
not terminated in one.
The manual page is not quite correct as to x/y's default selection;
there is an explicit routine that loops over all lines, using the usual
uncommented code.
