OK, let me ask more specific questions: 1. Why was the amount of whitespace in the tags table different from that in the source file? 2. What command(s) was/were used to produce the tags table? 3. Why are the issue and you talking about "trailing whitespace", while the difference between Expected and Actual in the issue is in leading whitespace, not trailing whitespace? > Let's make it the other way around: please, provide any language > example, where having the trailing space may be significant for > unambigiously determining the tag. etags.el doesn't understand any languages, that is the job of the program that produces the tags table. etags.el just follows the rules for the format of tags in the tags table. I don't know about trailing whitespace, but tags for HTML files surely include embedded whitespace, for example. So once again, I suggest to focus on the particular problem you had, because I'd like to find a solution for that without making backward-incompatible changes in behavior of etags.el. Thanks.
