> Velocity's behaviour is to gobble up excess whitespace. The preceding
> directive can be written as:
> {code}
> Send me
> #set( $foo = ["$10 and ","a pie"] )
> #foreach( $a in $foo )
> $a
> #end
> please.
> {code}
> or as
> {code}
> Send me
> #set($foo = ["$10 and ","a pie"])
> #foreach ($a in $foo )$a
> #end please.
> {code}
> In each case the output will be the same.
