No.  If I need to adjust whitespace I use normal editor (vi)
commands.  In particular removal of trailing whitespace is just
a search and replace commad.  For bigger repetitive edits
I use sed.  Before bigger edits I validate patterns using grep.

My policy is to have no tabs and no trailing whitespace in Spad
files, but otherwise I keep whitespace as is -- except when I
change code I also edit whitspace.
