Description Philippe A 2004-03-13 18:41:46 UTC

Version:           2.2.1 (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:          Linux

Why wait for a file to be reopened to clear unused spaces? I
think unused spaces should be flushed whenever the file is 
saved, and the cursor send to end of line whenever required. 
If we mean not to keep unused spaces, there is no benefit 
waiting for the next file open to clear them.

Technically the spaces are stripped on save.  However, they're stripped on the saved file.  Not the file you see in the editor.  To get the behavior you want to see: Save file and then hit F5 to reload.  They are now gone. Anyhow, reading the description of 69316 will indicate this is a dup
