is not quite correct. There's a slight difference between "C-j at the
end of a line" and "<RET> followed by <TAB>": The function
'newline-and-indent' eats up trailing whitespace while <RET> <TAB> does
not.
In programming modes, TAB does exactly that; it adjusts the indentation
on the line, so that any indentation the line previously had
is irrelevant.
Anyway, I cleaned up this text. Thanks.
I believe that you misunderstood. I do not believe that Uwe was
talking about indentation at the beginning of a line. He was talking
about _trailing_ whitespace.
If point is at the -!- at the end of the following line:
one -!-,
then after RET followed by tab, there will be trailing whitespace
after the "one". After C-j, that trailing whitespace will be deleted.
Sincerely,
Luc.
