Re: [NTG-context] How can I remove a blank leading line from a buffer

I really think, though, that a buffers.strip function would be the way to go, instead of futzing after the damage is done.

In lua, buffers.getcontent('name') gives the contents of the buffer labelled 'name'. You can post-process this in whatever way you want. For example, you could write a lua function userdata.strip that strips the leading and ending black spaces from a string, and then call context(userdata.strip(buffers.getcontent('name))) Aditya
