hi list,
just a comment:
'expand' converts tabs to spaces
'unexpand' converts spaces to tabs
no need for RE, no need for sed, no excuse :)
just my 2 cents,
walter

the more actual the better, but mention on which version your patch
applies. please send the patch inline to the kj mailinglist, not attached.
take a look at 6) -> SubmittingPatches
do take care not to introduce trailing space
or to convert tabs into spaces
quick egrep -n "^\+(.* $| )" helps.
do not forget to mention in your description the testing
(just compiled in lack of hardware, or actually run).

you' ll get more feedback as soon your patches lands.
if you don't get any feedback that may also be a good sign,
and your patch may get into next kj patch set.
good luck
