Description Adi Roiban 2010-04-21 12:31:37 UTC 
Hi,

While using Gedit for writing Python codes I needed to have a visual feedback for leading tabs, trailing spaces and long lines.

A screenshot of the result is here:

I am not sure if you want this changes for all users, but I was thinking that it is worth letting you know :)

Right now the code is here:

Cheers,

gtksourceview already provides api for this. See:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtksourceview/stable/GtkSourceView.html#gtk-source-view-set-draw-spaces

In gedit is provided with the gedit-plugins module a plugin to manage this in case you are interested.
