Re: [RFC] whitespace.el

Stephen> ... whitespace cleanup has been an issue on Python lists the Stephen> last couple of days, and they might be interested. Just an FYI (haven't posted this to python-dev yet), my problems with dangling whitespace are caused by hitting RET or LF (py-newline-and-indent) which indents according to the current environment, then moving away from that indentation using a command python-mode doesn't know about (e.g. previous-line), so it doesn't have the opportunity to delete the whitespace. The whitespace module might help here, though I've never used it. I think the best place for it would be as a write-file-hook though I worry about it not being aware of Python's triple-quoted strings which can extend over multiple lines and which might presumably contain legitimate trailing whitespace. (It might be interesting to have a list of cursor-motion-hooks which would get called just before point moves, but that's another story altogether.)
