Thank you. That's the point. Why inconvenience users unnecessarily? Not adding (or removing if added) trailing whitespace is the kind of thing that computers are good at. And the kind of thing that users should not be bothered with. Pretty amazing that two of the main Emacs developers take the attitude that this should be an individual user problem, not just a problem that the code should simply obviate. > For all files that I use in emacs setting show-trailing-whitespace > globally makes sense (but that might just be me).
