Bug#824220: RFS: ws-butler/0.3+git.a998a23-1 [ITP] -- unobtrusively remove trailing whitespace in Emacs



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package ws-butler.

This package provides ws-butler-mode and ws-butler-global-mode.  Upon
saving a file in Emacs, these modes delete trailing whitespace on lines
of the buffer that have been edited.

As compared with simply calling delete-trailing-whitespace in your
before-save-hook, ws-butler has the advantage of not cluttering up
version control commits with whitespace cleanup outside of the part of
the file you have edited.

I am packaging version 0.3+git.a998a23 because since version 0.3
upstream has refactored ws-butler's code quite significantly.  This
version is not unstable -- upstream just haven't tagged a release for a
while.

I intend to maintain this as part of the pkg-emacsen team.

* Package name    : ws-butler
  Version         : 0.3+git.a998a23-1
  Upstream Author : Le Wang
* URL             : https://github.com/lewang/ws-butler
* License         : GPL-3+
  Section         : lisp

Download with dget:

    dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/w/ws-butler/ws-butler_0.3+git.a998a23-1.dsc

Or build it with gbp:

    gbp clone --pristine-tar https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-emacsen/pkg/ws-butler.git
    cd ws-butler
    gbp buildpackage

Thanks.
