Applied.  While doing a routine check for memory leaks your code was fine, 
but I found 4 other memory leaks in the editor!

Mostly applied.  I don't agree that double spaces after dots should be
compresses into single spaces.  A double space indicate a new sentence.  
A single space after the dot can be an abbreviation.  From GNU Coding
Standards:

"Please put two spaces after the end of a sentence in your comments, so
that the Emacs sentence commands will work."

We are not talking about comments, but still it seems a useful convention
to me.

Applied.

I have been busy with more critical stuff.  Unfortunately, there is nobody 
here who would backup me if I have no time :-(

The answer is the same.
