Jim Campbell jwcampbell@gmail.com Show white space between words or portions of code. Draw Spaces

The Draw Spaces plugin is a simple plugin that can mark spaces, tabs, and other types of whitespace with a small, visible marker. By making whitespace visible, you can more easily see how whitespace is used in a document, and can apply spacing strategies more consistently.

To enable this plugin, select gedit PreferencesPlugins Draw Spaces. After you have enabled the plugin, you can set its options by highlighting the plugin and selecting Preferences.

By default, the <app>Draw Spaces</app> plugin will mark the following types of whitespace in a file:

Spaces

跳格

Leading spaces

Spaces in text

Trailing spaces

You can also set the plugin to mark:

New lines

Non-breaking spaces

Though you will be able to see the dots when you work on a file, the dots will not be visible when you print a file to paper.
