Launch gedit. 2. Create new file type. I am writing PHP file when I noticed it. So I created a PHP file. 3. Put some codes/strings in there. Be sure your last line is a text. 4. Use Remove trailing spaces feature of gedit. 5. Observe, the last line will be trimmed. I expect, only trailing spaces will be removed. I found out that the last line was also remove. I also use other programming languages and still removes the string. Attached is the sample string I made. Open it with gedit 3.4.1 and remove trailing spaces. The comment should not be removed.
