If you think that's bad, wait until you realize that even though people will fill threads talking about zig being a successor to C, it -purposefully- errors out on carriage returns and tabs! It is specifically built in that if you save a text file out of any windows editor without changing special settings, zig will error out. If you put in tabs, it will error out. Now trailing white space doesn't seem so bad.
