Dear all,
As I understand it, a fixed width section (BTW, is "fixed width section" the official term for this?) is defined as a line which is started by zero or more spaces, and then a colon, *and then a space*, and then zero or more characters.
:<spc>line1
:<spc>
:<spc>line3
But many editors (Emacs including) likes to trim trailing spaces, so when the file is saved, the second line loses its space:
:<spc>line1
:
:<spc>line3
Should the second line be parsed as a fixed width section too or not?
