Atom text editor remove trailing whitespace on save
I use Sublime text
. Now I am trying Atom
. When I save any file in sublime text it does not include any trailing blank line. But saving any file in Atom
leaves a trailing blank line. How do I force Atom
not to leave trailing white spaces?
Under your Atom Preferences
go to Packages
tab and search for whitespace
. Click on the whitespace
package and uncheck Ensure Single Trailing Newline
option
On global level this can be changed using settings
in Whitespace
package, but if you want to disable it for a specific language you have to use syntax-scoped properties in your config.cson.
'.text.html.php': # php overrides
whitespace:
ensureSingleTrailingNewline: false
removeTrailingWhitespace: false
'.source.ruby': # ruby overrides
whitespace:
ensureSingleTrailingNewline: false
removeTrailingWhitespace: false
To see the scope of language go to Packages
tab and search for your language.
Click on the settings of the language package and you can see the scope:
