It's easy: you want to get rid of the "~" (just like me) but still be aware of any trailing whitespace, right? Then, set "NonText" to an invisible color and use "listchars" to see if there are trailing whitespace at the end of lines when needed. I've set a mapping to enable/disable listchars showing: " Toggle visibility of special chars nmap <silent> <Leader>+ :set invlist<CR> imap <silent> <Leader>+ x<BS><C-\><C-O><Leader>+ Anyway, although I don't like the "~" at all, I've learnt to live with them. When I started using Vim I patched the sources to use a space and not a tilde, but it was not worth the maintenance effort when upgrading Vim. Right now, I barely notice them at all. In fact, I thought I had them highlighted in an invisible colour, but that's not true! -- Raúl "DervishD" Núñez de Arenas Coronado Linux Registered User 88736 | http://www.dervishd.net It's my PC and I'll cry if I want to...
