Re: [Zope] trailing whitespace optimization

Hi Paul,

You're right about the size of files with trailing blanks. I had a file of over 1 meg yesterday, and when I striped all the blanks it was only 47K, pretty radical reduction.

There is an external Python method that is part of the zope Extenions library, it should be in something called /opt/zope/Extensions/ called strip_blanks.py. You can attach it to your zope session, then it is called via:

<dtml-var "strip_blank(varName)[:-1]">

Is this the same as calling <dtml-var "_.string.strip(varName)"> only slower? ;-) Regards Tino Wildenhain
