What is the use case for having significant spaces at the end of a line *and* the need to see the text structure verbatim. This is certaintly not the text of a programming language where only trailing spaces are not significant except for continuation lines in strings. The syntax of back quoted string (* 6.4.7 *) is defined already. So if you want an extension using them you have to use that syntax and maybe only recognize a subset of it as a valid extension. The syntax is essentially the same of the double quoted list tokken (* 6.4.6 *) and quoted token (* 6.4.2 *). _______________________________________________ Users-prolog mailing list Users-prolog@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/users-prolog
