trim-lines
Remove spaces and tabs around line breaks.
Contents
What is this?
This package is a tiny utility that removes spaces and tabs around line endings, keeping the line endings, and not removing whitespace at the start or end of the string. It might look trivial, but it’s actually pretty complex to get performant.
When should I use this?
When you need to trim markdown-like whitespace around line endings and don’t want to run into performance problems.
