RE: [sv-bc] 1339: (RESEND)`define behavior on trimming leading and trailing spaces in macros

OK, except that in 
"Any white-space characters preceding or following the macro replacement
text are not considered part of the replacement,"
"replacement" does not appear in the current LRM text. If you use it
here, then consistency demands using it elsewhere as well.
How about 
"Any white space characters preceding or following the macro text are
not considered part of the macro text"?
 
Regards,
Shalom

	Okay I get it now.  I thought part of the mantis was attempting
to deal with multi-line macros and spaces accrued internally.  You are
right, this is considered "inside" the macro. So, that being the case, I
think simple removing that last sentence should do the trick.  We can
talk about it briefly during the conference call. I have updated the
Mantis item with a revised proposal. -Tom

	Tom,

		 

		Additionally, for multi-line macros any trailing
white-space between the last token on a line and the newline before a
backslash is not considered part of the replacement. 
		[SB] I disagree with this. This is not trimming white
space preceding or following the macro text, but rather in the middle of
the macro text. I also tested three different implementations, and none
of them did this.

		 

		Regards,

		Shalom
