Below code compiles as-is but fails when commenting out the \input statement. Why, and how to fix this?


\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{booktabs}


\begin{filecontents}{mwe-bottomrule}
abc \
\end{filecontents}


\begin{document}


\begin{tabular}{l}
    abc \
    %\input{mwe-bottomrule}
    \bottomrule
\end{tabular}


\end{document}

Replacing \\ with \tabularnewline has no effect. Latest TeXlive on macOS.

    Your code complies fine if I replace \begin{filecontents*}{mwe-bottomrule} with \begin{filecontents*}[overwrite]{mwebottomrule.tex} and \input{mwe-bottomrule} with \input mwebottomrule. – Mico Nov 02 '20 at 17:19

    @Mico This is also effectively the solution in the linked question (the primitive TeX \input fixes the problem). – mrupp Nov 06 '20 at 16:08
