\z should really be the end of the file, but because Textmate only
hands off one line at a time to the parser it really means end-of-
line. ie: \z and $ are identical.
Currently you can't reliably catch the end-of-file case, $(?!\n)
works for most cases there there is something on the last line, but
when there is no characters on the last line there is nothing to match.
