James,

There is a plugin available for gedit to strip all trailing whitespace

It's available for download at
http://users.tkk.fi/~otsaloma/gedit/trailsave.gedit-plugin

If you install this for gedit, not only will you never have this problem
again, but when you edit the files you'll automatically remove trailing
whitespace, so the files will get better over time.

I'd recommend doing this, although you don't need to.

Mark, Graham tried to get you interested in taking over lilycontrib.tcl.
Are you interested?

Thanks,

Carl
