Hi Sean,

Is it possible your plugin is returning the newline? If it is, then:
[% plugin.return_stuff() | trim -%] should do the trick.  If that's not the case then I suggest turning on template compilation, and then you can check out the compiled template to see if TT is actually adding the newline there.
