also, it should apply to perl files, as well. in fact, it should probably apply to most files in MANIFEST and MANIFEST.skip, except for a few where the spaces are required (like some test data files.) however, i'd accept this patch if it were extended only to cover the perl files. thanks for your hard work! ~jerry
