I think that it is a unix convention to consider a text file as a stream
of lines.
A line being a string (possibly empty) of characters ended by a linefeed.

This discussion was had a while back, in great detail. "do shell script" is adding the LF character at the end of the command. You (currently) cannot stop this from happening. It's Applescript doing it.
