I pondered a similar solution using :[2]match: :match Error / \+/ :2match WildMenu /\t\+/ (or they can be rolled into one :match Error /\s\+/ if you don't want to distinguish between them) However what threw me was his "temporarily" aspect. I don't know of anything that clears on a cursor-move. Both your 'list' solution and my ":match" solutions persist until turned off. Though at least with yours, it's an easy :nnoremap <f4> :set list!<cr> for toggling. But that doesn't highlight spaces. Anyways, several ideas for the OP to play with. -tim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
