Ah, that's an idea. Just "/ " to search for spaces (assumes
highlighting's turned on), and they'll all be highlighted. He wants to
turn off highlighting, just "/qqq" or something.
Else maybe tweak the font to change space to · or something.
Thing is, change the font to something else, and that goes away, and
he'd have to tweak the font for that as well.
Eg, if he's using Lucida console 10pt, make a copy of the font, rename
to something else ("Lucidaspace" or whatever), edit the font to change
the space char, then when you want visispaces, just font your way to
that. Want invisispaces again, change back to the normal Lucida font.
