Hi All -

Sorry if this obvious but I couldn't find anything in :help or google.

Is there a vim option to represent space characters in a file as a dot
or something else not blank?

Thanks,
Stewart


:set hls
/

That is slash then a space

Perhaps out of respect for the people and the skill of the people who  
are knowledgeable enough and have the skills to contribute material  
to the site that benefit the rest of us so much.


The site that people who ask this kind of question just slurp up and  
devour the information but do not have the class, upbringing or  
respect to even bother to register or log in.

For example, highlight lines 1, 4, 7, but no other lines.


Do you want to use ctrl-v, v, or V? With those, the answer is:  
(drumroll, please) ... No.


However, if you're talking about :set hls, then

/\%1l\|\%4l\|\%7l

will do the job.

This is just too cool ;-)

It has inspired me to create an FAQ for VIM!
