Buck just posted that the editor has never trimmed the trailing spaces.
Michael, you say the exact opposite. I'm inclined to go with your view,
but see my thoughts here.

I was so certain, but now...

Time to test. I had a self-induced immolation that ended up with me
deleting every version of WDSC / RDi and re-installing 9.1.1 so I can't
test with WDSC. But I can test it with the Code/400 editor that came
with WDSC v7 (Code/400 v6).

Test conditions:
1) STRSEU, update a line in a source member, save. The member now has
trailing blanks.

2) Open for edit with RDi 9.1.1, press End - cursor goes all the way to
column 101 on my H-specification, which ends at column 41. Close member.

3) Open member for edit in Code/400, press End - cursor goes to column
42. Close member.

4) Open member for edit in SEU, press End - cursor goes to column 42.


Conclusion:
SEU trims trailing blanks on open.
Code/400 did in fact trim trailing blanks on open.
RDi 9.1.1 does not trim trailing blanks on open.

Michael is correct. I am wrong.
