:h abbreviations
there's a handy example i use in all my iabbrs:
func Eatchar(pat)
let c = nr2char(getchar(0))
return (c =~ a:pat) ? '' : c
endfunc
iabbr <silent> if if ()<Left><C-R>=Eatchar('\s')<CR>
you have to read down a way to see it
as coded, it will eat a space and invoke the iabbr, but if you
trigger with a <CR> it leaves it
hth,
