Since time immemorial, i've use delete-trailing-whitespace in my write-file-hooks to ensure, well, that my files are saved without trailing whitespaces. It works like a charm except for the fact that a trailing vertical bar (|) is, apparently, considered whitespace; that is, it's deleted when saving the file. This happened with emacs 21, and happends too with emacs 22, both in GNU/Linux and Mac OS X. Has anyone else observed this behaviour? Any ideas on what could be causing it? Thanks, jao
