Ah, very nice, 2 taps beats my four, or six for <shift>:noh<enter>.
For my previous mail, note that, as best I can tell, 'contained' is
broken by the use of 'contains=ALLBUT,...' in various other syntax files
like C and C++ (please tell me how I'm mistaken). I have a
clean_cpp.vim I use to switch to 'contains=TOP' instead.
Anyhow, for kicks I've extended my odd_space.vim to show spaces that
aren't tab aligned by 4. These are recent changes, so I haven't perused
a lot of source to see if it causes any odd corner cases.
