Enhancement request

The output from the CLI seems to always include 2 trailing empty lines. Could they be removed?

Example command: $ https google.com

Current output:

The output I would like:

HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently

So exactly the same, and still with an empty line for padding between sections like headers and body, but without the 2 trailing empty lines.


Problem it solves

Would give a shorter output. This means there would be a shorter distance to scroll up to some output, and in some cases there would be no need to scroll at all, since more actual output could fit in the window.
