All the blanks go away when I overwrite > one character and save the file! This is fascinating. Is this true of any file, or just particular files? Can you try this with a plain text file and tell us if it happens or not? Or attach a file on which you see this behavior? If it's not plain text that you're dealing with, what mode are you editing the files in? Is this, for example, C source code, or something like that? I'd be interested in the output of: M-x describe-mode RET ...if you could send that along on one of these files. If you see this on plain text files, I'm stumped, because I don't, -Q or not. I'd be inclined to blame something else on your computer at that point, and I admit that that's a stretch. -- Charles Sebold 11th of September, 2008
