#948 strip.trailing.spaces should be filetype-dependant
Currently, strip.trailing.spaces can only be set globally. However, some file types and/or their corresponding lexers are sensitive to spaces even in empty lines. For example, strip,trailing.spaces=1 breaks the YAML lexer's formatting of multi-line values. It is also makes it impossible to have "filler" spaces in YAML multi-line values. On the other hand, strip,trailing.spaces=1 is a good setting in most coding contexts.
Therefore, it would make very much sense to be able to set a default value "globally":
strip.traling.spaces=1
and override it for specific file types:
strip.traling.spaces.$(file.patterns.yaml)=0
I'll accept a well-written patch that includes documentation changes but will not be working on this myself.
Hello,
I don't write the documentation yet, because I want to know before whether this patch is well-written enough.

Plz find this new patch where the buffers are managed :

As I told you before, the documentation is not wrote yet because I want to know whether this patch is well written enough.
Plz find another patch where I try to limit modifications into SciTEBase::PrepareBufferForSave. I have also to modify MatchWild method to add it into PropSetFile (to access it easily).
This patch manages file pattern and not only.

I stop work on this patch (documentation) until Neil gives me feedback to know whether this patch is well-written enough and if necessary what need to be improved.
Making a property file-type-sensitive should be close to a 1-line change and should not modify PropSetFile. See, for example, use.tabs although that code could be tighter.
Ok thx for the tip:
Plz find this new patch with doc :

Committed.
