It means, that there has to be an empty line at the end. It has to be a Windows line end (CR LF), not a Linux one (just LF).

Sorry I can't upload text-files, so I created a screenshot of the file opened in the windows editor.
It should look like this:

Thanks aker,but what's difference between the file that you made with the one that I made,it's seems to be same.

There is an empty line at the end.

At the end of the last entry, you have to press <RETURN>, the cursor has to be on the next empty line.

Technically, a Windows linebreak consists of two invisible chars: 0x0D and 0x0A. 0x0D is called Carriage Return (CR) and 0x0A is the Line Feed (LF).
The only problem is that Linux and MacOS do use different linebreaks: Linux and modern MacOSX use 0x0A only. Ancient MacOS used 0x0D only. WSUSOU needs Windows linebreaks (CR+LF).

Thanks a lot aker for answering me and that you were patient with me and my questions and thanks a lot boco for your answer.
wish you luck
