We should definitely strive for consistency here... \r and \f for ^M and ^L is fine by me (although I guess more people are familiar with ^L than \f). As for space... Hm. It's unfortunate that it's displayed just as a blank, so displaying it as \s would definitely make sense. But it also sounds a bit confusing. :-/ Could we ... use a different background colour on the space to indicate that it's there? I guess that's not all that easy to interpret, either... -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
