## API

### [appendBuffer](index.js#L28)

Append a buffer to another buffer ensuring to preserve line ending characters.

**Params**

* `buf` **{Buffer}**: Buffer that will be used to check for an existing line ending. The suffix is appended to this.
* `suffix` **{Buffer}**: Buffer that will be appended to the buf.
* `returns` **{Buffer}**: Final Buffer

**Example**

```js
console.log([appendBuffer(new Buffer('abc\r\n'), new Buffer('def')).toString()]);
//=> [ 'abc\r\ndef\r\n' ]

console.log([appendBuffer(new Buffer('abc\n'), new Buffer('def')).toString()]);
//=> [ 'abc\ndef\n' ]

// uses os.EOL when a line ending is not found
console.log([appendBuffer(new Buffer('abc'), new Buffer('def')).toString()]);
//=> [ 'abc\ndef' ]
```
