More Detail

Usage

Added tabs are annoying when multi-line template strings.

var a = `These
		are annoying!!!`;
		
console.log(a); // 'These\n\t\tare annoying!!!'

So I use tagged function to remove them. It checks first line's tab number and removes other lines's tabs according to it.

var a = 
r`		Not
		annoyed any more :)`;

console.log(a); // 'Not\nannoyed any more :)'

If you don't like leading tagged, top-tagged is also allowed.

var a = r`
		Not
		annoyed any more too! :)`;

console.log(a); // 'Not\nannoyed any more too! :)'
