Comments on https://github.com/mcepl/html2text/commit/f511f3c78e60d7734d677f8945580f52ef7ef742#L0R765 (perhaps in https://github.com/aaronsw/html2text/pull/77) are more than welcome. When using

SPACE_RE = re.compile(r'\s\+') 

for checking, whole onlywhite function is not needed anymore (and it still made me wonder what Aaron meant when he wrote it). Why line.isspace() doesn't work is weird though.

Best,

Matěj
