Hi,

It seems that "ignore-whitepace" option in Ediff, used
to "skip over regions that differ only in whitespace
and linebreaks", does not consider "lack of
whitespace" between braces and parens in C and C++
statements.

As an example, it would be nice to ignore the
difference in whitepace and lack of whitespace between
the parens in the following regions:

  Region A:
    if ( (var1 == true) || (var2 == true) )

  Region B:
    if ((var1 == true) || (var2 == true))

Does anyone know how to make ediff behave this way?

Thanks,
m
