Given the issues I raised and Raymond's rejection of this, his first suggested option, on the PR, in favor of his second suggested option, #33046, I agree, at least for now. The use case for whitespace tagging would be if someone wants to selectively delete trailing whitespace. However, python/cpython rejects any trailing whitespace for all of .py, .c, and .rst files. So this must be exceedingly rare and is not something that IDLE must facilitate. ---------- resolution: -> rejected stage: needs patch -> resolved status: open -> closed superseder: -> IDLE option to strip trailing whitespace automatically on save _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue23667> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
