Trailing carriage returns are removed on exit

[mikeyww]

Trailing carriage returns are removed from text to paste when Lintalist exits.

[lintalist]

Yes, I know but didn't bother me. I always use the https://lintalist.github.io/#c-plugin [[c=\n|2]] for example.

I'll have a look at how I can keep them in and either set that as default or as optional "keep trailing white space" - might take a little while before I get to it.

Thanks! Mike

I think this may be the solution, only briefly tested, so your mileage may vary.

1. backup your bundles or your entire lintalist folder so you don't loose anything :)
2. download ObjectBundles.ahk below and copy it to include\ObjectBundles.ahk replacing the file that is there.
3. (Re)start lintalist

It should now keep leading and trailing spaces & new lines in bundles even after restarting. If this works for you - I'll try it out for a few days as well - I'll make it optional behavior and include it in the next release.

Edit: new file
ObjectBundles.zip

Thank you. When I run it, it is popping up with dialog windows containing two of my snips, attached-- not sure why. Mike

Also showing "\n" in the paste field. Not good!

My bad, left in debug MsgBox. Updated it above. You will also notice that other snippets are now messed up which I didn't catch with my test bundle. So be sure to close lintalist, copy back your bundles from your backup, and update the ObjectBundles.ahk with the one above. Start lintalist.

Should work better I hope. 🤞
Note that it now only keeps trailing white space (tabs, spaces, newlines) but those at the start of a snippet are still removed by default (too tricky to fix I think)

[mikeyww]

Still messy. The program seems to have added leading and trailing spaces to every item. It is also still showing "\n" in the "Paste" column of the main display.

[lintalist]

Are you sure you closed lintalist, copied your backup bundles back, copied the new ahk file and THEN restarted lintalist? The previous version messaged up snippets. It works here as far as I can tell with snippets with no part2 it will no longer show
\n in the second column.

Ah well, failed experiment it seems. Using [[c]] works reliably afaik although more work to add it to snippets of course :(

[mikeyww]

Yep, just tried it again; screenshot of the "\n" is available. When I reversed the procedure, everything is the way it was earlier.

Thanks for trying.

[lintalist]

I think that is because there is now an actual new line in those part 2s, so if you edit one and remove any trailing ones it should no long display it for those snippets. Not a solution of course.

[mikeyww]

I didn't put the newlines there. They appeared. The leading and trailing spaces also still remain in the Paste items. These are bugs in the code. When I revert, those problems disappear.
