Subject: delete-horizontal-space and NO-BREAK SPACE
Date: Mon, 23 Aug 2010 15:33:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2fwy5a1y9.fsf@ohwell.denx.de> (raw)
Hi,
more and more often I get emails with NO-BREAK SPACE characters (ascii
160) in them which are used for alignment purposes. When replying to
such e-mails, I usually have to edit this a lot and wish 'M-\' would
erase the whole stretch of the characters.
Looking up the definition of delete-horizontal-space, it is obvious that
it doesn't do this as it only erases " \t".
Is there another nice function really erasing all space characters
(i.e. chars belonging to the "space" category) or should the funtion be
improved?
Thanks
Detlev
