I'm going to have to agree with Adam on this one. It's something that I generally notice and fix in parts of the code that I'm touching (just like any other style fixes) but it's just noise to do a mass conversion. It has no effect on the end-user and no real effect on any developers. Any tools used to generate diffs handle extraneous whitespace just fine. -- James GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 2003-09-02 James Vega <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
