I found the section called "VIEWING TABS" in the chapter 05.7 of the
standard vim manual. It contains the following:

> :set listchars=tab:>-,trail:-

with the explanation what the setting does. However there is no
word concerning cursor position there. That chapter seems to be the
best place to write how to emulate the "standard" cursor behaviour
in vim. But:
1. it would be difficult for a novice who came from another editor
   to find that place and he/she won't probably find the solution of
   the problem. Are there better places?
2. is the solution in question correct on all platforms/terminals so
   that we are allowed to add such a comment to the help file? It
   works on x86 and x86_64 in xterm and linux terminals but what
   about others?

Bram, would you?
