[WebMacro-user] Whitespace gobbling

[Tim P. <ti...@pa...>]

Hi gang, 

It is great that there is a bit more activity on the list. 

I have been using WM for java code generation, and 
it has continued to work very nicely.

However I am having pain with whitespace handling. 

Up until 0.98p1 whitespace gobbling was perfect, then just a few 
versions before 1.0 there was an urgent, and I am sure genuine, 
need to break it, (if I remember correctly so that CSV files could be 
generated cleanly). 

The documentation at http://www.webmacro.org/WhiteSpace still refers 
to the oldskool rules.

Those rules worked perfectly for clean and elegant HTML and similar 
code generation, which is the central use case for WM. 

Can the default be returned to the 0.98p1 rules and the current 
incomprehensible rules become pluggable please?

yours
