I'm currently trying the latest version from the Darcs repository. The Canonicalise* examples output a lot of spaces within tags.
Yes, that is expected behaviour, due to the pretty printer. In order to avoid adding extra whitespace around text (which could be significant), yet still preserve the hierarchical structure of the tree (by indentation), all "structuring" whitespace is placed inside the tags themselves. I agree it is not ideal behaviour. I would like to offer the possibility of more traditional indentation as well (as an option). No-one has yet coded it however. Regards, Malcolm
