You are correct, Steve. Once I changed my script to alter the preference "StripTrailingWhitespace" without "Filing:" at the beginning, it works as expected. The Preferences window continues to show the old state, however.
Has there been a documented request for enhancements to make preferences more scriptable? It would be nice to be able to read a setting's value from Applescript, too.
