I'm a of the option to delete the spaces behind the word also to make the editor turbo and delphi compatible. Its not because i want it to be fully compatible, but handling it this way requires a lot less keystrokes if you want to delete the first 4 words in a sentence.
I was testing a bit more last night and i was wundering about the following situation: a:= 'foo_bar| and xyz'; a:= 'foo_bar xyz'; Is this how it should behave ?
