[vitornogueira]

How can I improve the visualization of white spaces? (spaces and tabs)

VIM:

VSCODE:

:help listchars might gives you some insights here.

For instance, here is my current set up:

listchars=eol:$,tab:->,trail:.,extends:>,precedes:<,nbsp:_

For indentation indicators I believe there's a plugin for that. I don't think vim can do that by itself.

You can change the colors by setting NonText to the same color as for your comment for instance.

See hi NonText, hope it helps, cheers
