This 'smart_spaceless' template tag is a replacement for Django's built-in 'spaceless'. If settings.DEBUG = True, spaces will not be removed to make debugging your template code easier. When DEBUG = False, spaces will be removed. Happy coding!
Very much like the snippet joshua wrote (http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/67/) for the same purpose but with the addition that this lets the user get values for more complex settings like dicts and lists
Sometimes you want to add CSS classes to HTML elements that are generated by Django using their `__unicode__` representation, eg. you can output a form field with `{{ form.name }}`, but if you would like to add a certain CSS class to the outputted input or select tag you would have to assort to plain HTML. Using this filter you can simply do something like `{{ form.name|add_class:"span-4" }}` which will render an input like `<input type="..." name="..." class="span-4`.
