No. I meant the reverse: the PR strips trailing blanks.

Leo never creates directories without your explicit permission.


Sure - I meant (if it wasn't clear) that I would strongly resist 
creating/using directories with trailing spaces. Heck, I still resist 
spaces within file and directory names!

trailing comment in in an @path headline. This of course implies some way 
of delimiting the comment ... and this probably clashes with what you are 
trying to achieve with the directory characters.

This "feature" was never intended and the PR (just merged) eliminates it. 
The benefits of the former Easter Egg are miniscule compared with the 
problems.


Got it - there is an minor inconsistency in that trailing spaces will not 
be reflected in the resulting directory name. I for one am perfectly happy 
with this.
