I'd say it's more a design flaw, as help says /with is the same as
/all, which makes using it with /head a bit contradictory...
USAGE:
TRIM series /head /tail /auto /lines /all /with str
DESCRIPTION:
Removes whitespace from a string. Default removes from head and
tail.
TRIM is an action value.
ARGUMENTS:
series -- (Type: series port)
REFINEMENTS:
/head -- Removes only from the head.
/tail -- Removes only from the tail.
/auto -- Auto indents lines relative to first line.
/lines -- Removes all line breaks and extra spaces.
/all -- Removes all whitespace.
/with
str -- Same as /all, but removes characters in 'str'. (Type:
char string)
It'd make more sense if /with just replaced removing whitespace with
removing str. Very odd that it doesn't, actually...
