Thanks to all who have responded.
I eventually managed to understand the "listchars=trail:" solution. I
read your (and Matt Wozniski's) explanation about ten times and really
could not figure it out.
Even though I already had the following in my .vimrc:
:set lcs=tab:>-,trail:˘,eol:$,nbsp:○,extends:→,precedes:←
[You need an UTF-8 capable environment to correctly display the above]
In other words, I had already solved this without realizing..
Maybe the problem was that the files I was looking at didn't have any
trailing spaces..? :-)
Anyway, I got that working.
I pursued another option, and after a whirlwind tour of vimscript via
vim-script-intro and studying the examples you and others kindly
provided, I came up with the following toggle and mappings:
"-------------------------------------------------
function Sl()
let w:zobi = exists('w:zobi') ? !w:zobi : 1
if w:zobi"
hi Nontext ctermfg=58
set list
else
hi NonText ctermfg=0
set nolist
unlet w:zobi
endif
endfun
:nm <silent> <F7> :call Sl()<CR>
:im <silent> <F7> <C-O> :call Sl()<CR>
"-------------------------------------------------
I'm sure there are more elegant ways to implement the above [and
probably coding standards that I merrily ignored] but it appears to do
the job.
If anyone has a 256-color terminal, I cannot resist the temptation of
attaching my finalized "nightowl" color scheme.
Let me know if it works in your setup.
Gen-Paul.

" Notes: This color scheme makes the 'end of buffer' mark '~'
" invisible by specifying:
"
" "hi NonText ctermfg=Black ctermbg=Black"
"
" In other words, a black foreground on a black background.
"
" This could become a problem when using ":set list" because
" it also makes the EOL character '$' invisible when issuing
" a ":set list" command.
"
" One possible solution is to ask vim to display trailing
" spaces instead, by adding something like the following
" to your ~/.vimrc:
"
" ":set listchars+=trail:Ë"
"
" This will reveal trailing spaces rather than EOL marks,
" basically serving the same purpose.
"
" Naturally, the user can choose to replace the Ë with any
" other character that he finds suitable. I only chose Ë
" because it is quite readable with the font that I use.
"
" If you don't mind displaying the 'end of buffer' marks and
" want to visualize the EOL marks, just swap the two "Nontext"
" highlight definitions on lines 71 & 72.
"
" Also, this color scheme is strictly for a 256-color terminal
" and will not work for the gui or less capable terminals.
