[Jed-users-l] "display" tab characters

[Manfred Hanke <Manfred.Hanke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

is there a way in jed to explicitly mark tab characters (in addition to
their indent), different from spaces? Some editors use something like:
»	»	»	»	
for
"\x09\x09\x09\x09"

I'd also love to see the region "occupied" by the tab, e.g. like:
»——————›»——————›  »————›    »——›
for
"\x09\x09  \x09    \x09"

I'd distinguish such a representation of "\x09" from actual "»—›" text
through a different, decent color for the former.


From a quick look into the jed source code, the tab width seems to go
directly into S-Lang's SLsmg_Tab_Width, so I might not be able to easily
change the "appearance" of a tab character... right?

Thanks for any ideas!

Cheers,

Manfred
