A better screenshot:

I expected it would remove the whitespace after the ';' at the end of the line.

It works but not on the line the cursor is on because in that case we do not know if you want to continue typing after the whitespace.

@bpasero so shouldn't the editor have one more option to define that?

@thegiantbeast we cannot really offer such an option because when auto save is enabled, the save can kick in anytime (currently 1 second after making a change) and you would not be able to type whitespace after the end of a line and continue typing.

That doesn't sound complex, as long as you differentiate a save from auto save (where the white spaces are not trimmed) and when the user actually saves a file, no?

It's because it's really annoying that I have to remember to delete the spaces in the line that I'm in.

@alexandrudima fyi

@bpasero 👍
I like the idea: an explicit ctrl+s should trim everything, a background auto-save should keep doing what its doing now.

👍 This is great! Thank you!
