Hello Andrew and all

Hallo.

I recently tried "git-apply" on the 2.6.20-rc6-mm1 patch and found it to complain about white-spaces.
So as a mean to (hopefully) cut down on these nasty white-spaces (and sometimes tabs) I wrote this
little script. All it does is checking (lines that are going to be added) for spaces before tabs
and trailing spaces/tabs. I tried it on 2.6.20-rc6-mm1 and it seem to work well

If there is someone interested, _please_ take it. Any suggestion are welcomed :)

Nack, big and fat. It's userspace problem.

If our "developers" can't use or update their every-day-tools, it's a
shame. And this is not trolling: i'm using Jed and GNU Emacs, both are
ok with whitespace "production".
Oh, I hope I didn't give the impression I wanted it in the kernel (that is why i labeled it as SCRIPT and not PATCH), as you said it is a userspace problem. I just thought a simple script to remove those whitespace could help in an imperfect world. I prefer kate since then you can see where the tabs begins (and other features).
