29 ;; The whitespace library is intended to find and help fix five different types
30 ;; of whitespace problems that commonly exist in source code.
31 ;;
32 ;; 1. Leading space (empty lines at the top of a file).
33 ;; 2. Trailing space (empty lines at the end of a file).
34 ;; 3. Indentation space (8 or more spaces at beginning of line, that should be
35 ;; replaced with TABS).
36 ;; 4. Spaces followed by a TAB. (Almost always, we never want that).
37 ;; 5. Spaces or TABS at the end of a line.
38 ;;
39 ;; Whitespace errors are reported in a buffer, and on the modeline.
40 ;;
41 ;; Modeline will show a W:<x>!<y> to denote a particular type of whitespace,
42 ;; where `x' and `y' can be one (or more) of:
43 ;;
44 ;; e - End-of-Line whitespace.
45 ;; i - Indentation whitespace.
46 ;; l - Leading whitespace.
47 ;; s - Space followed by Tab.
48 ;; t - Trailing whitespace.
49 ;;
50 ;; If any of the whitespace checks is turned off, the modeline will display a
51 ;; !<y>.
52 ;;
53 ;; (since (3) is the most controversial one, here is the rationale: Most
54 ;; terminal drivers and printer drivers have TAB configured or even
55 ;; hardcoded to be 8 spaces. (Some of them allow configuration, but almost
56 ;; always they default to 8.)
57 ;;
58 ;; Changing `tab-width' to other than 8 and editing will cause your code to
59 ;; look different from within Emacs, and say, if you cat it or more it, or
60 ;; even print it.
61 ;;
62 ;; Almost all the popular programming modes let you define an offset (like
63 ;; c-basic-offset or perl-indent-level) to configure the offset, so you
64 ;; should never have to set your `tab-width' to be other than 8 in all
65 ;; these modes. In fact, with an indent level of say, 4, 2 TABS will cause
66 ;; Emacs to replace your 8 spaces with one \t (try it). If vi users in
67 ;; your office complain, tell them to use vim, which distinguishes between
68 ;; tabstop and shiftwidth (vi equivalent of our offsets), and also ask them
69 ;; to set smarttab.)
70 ;;
71 ;; All the above have caused (and will cause) unwanted codeline integration and
72 ;; merge problems.
73 ;;
74 ;; whitespace.el will complain if it detects whitespaces on opening a file, and
75 ;; warn you on closing a file also (in case you had inserted any
76 ;; whitespaces during the process of your editing).
77 ;;
78 ;; Exported functions:
79 ;;
80 ;; `whitespace-buffer' - To check the current buffer for whitespace problems.
81 ;; `whitespace-cleanup' - To cleanup all whitespaces in the current buffer.
82 ;; `whitespace-region' - To check between point and mark for whitespace
83 ;; problems.
84 ;; `whitespace-cleanup-region' - To cleanup all whitespaces between point
85 ;; and mark in the current buffer.
