Any idea on how to delete all the spaces and tabs at the end of all my lines in my code using vim? I sometimes use commands to add things at the end of my lines, but sometimes, because of these unexpected blanks (that is, I put these blanks there inadvertently while coding), which serve no purpose whatsoever, these commands don't do the right job... so i'd like to get rid of the blanks once and for all using some vim command. Thanks in advance!
String result = str. trim(); The trim() method will remove both leading and trailing whitespace from a string and return the result.
Press Shift + Alt then press the down button before "56". Then backspace . You will see the cursor becomes big and then you can remove the spaces all at once.
In vim:
:%s/\s\+$//
Explanation:
:
command%
apply to entire files
search and replace/\s\+$/
regex for one or more whitespace characters followed by the end of a line//
replacement value of an empty stringI use this function :
func! DeleteTrailingWS() exe "normal mz" %s/\s\+$//ge exe "normal `z" endfunc
Leader,w to remove trailing white spaces
noremap <leader>w :call DeleteTrailingWS()<CR>
Remove trailing white spaces when saving a python file:
autocmd BufWrite *.py :call DeleteTrailingWS()
