I use Komodo Edit and I would like to have more than 2 characters, at least in my Output.
Of course, I Googled this question, but I can't see any answer.
How can I achieve that?

I know there are some threads about this on stackoverflow but when i write ":set list" in the editor, it seems to display hidden characters but it doesnt display the hidden characters in the code we are having problems with.
Some times now we have had some invisible symbols in our code making if loops break, i dont know how the symbols get there except from that some wierd keyboard combination much have been accidentally typed in. The code itself looks correct but the invisible symbol breaks it.
I have searched online about this but all i can find seems to be the ":set list" command in vim in addition to have to change the color of the hidden characters, but while this seems to display some hidden characters it doesnt display the problematic ones. We are getting two symbols which looks like a cross and one looks like a pistol. We have also tried to add the "draw_white_space" setting in sublime text but this only seems to display, well, whitspace like it says but the result was shown on google for showing hiden characters so i gave it a try.
The only way we have been able to see where the symbols are is with the DiffMerge tool, we have not been able to see these symbols in any other editor but we have actually been able to copy the sign to its own file and grep through all the files with the -f grep option which works, but it would be easier to display the characters in vim but using a keybinding.
Does someone have any suggestions? This is causing us to use a lot more time debugging the code when the problems is an invisible symbol.
Try the following search command:
/[^ -~<09>]
(you get the <09> by pressing the tab key). Or if you want to get rid of those nasty tabs, just:
/[^ -~]
That will find and highlight any non-ASCII or control-ASCII character.
If you still have hidden characters out there, you can try this command before the search:
:set enc=latin1
That will prevent any weird Unicode character to show up in your code.
I know that it is possible to filter a search query in sublime to only look at/through certain filetypes, but I don't remember the syntax to do so. As far as I can recall, it was something like
..//filepath/ *.scss, *.css, *.xckv, -*.etc
Can anybody help me out here?
When you type 'MAJ+Ctrl+F'
You see the input at bottom of screen.
Line 1 : Find Input
Line 2 : Where Input
Line 3 : Replace Input
At right of Where Input, click on the three dots, and select 'add Include Filter'
I've recently discovered Sublime Text and since I'm new to using text editors like this, I had a question about indentation. When I'm not using Sublime for code, I type up my writing with it before taking it to a word processor for further processing. I've been having a little bit of trouble with the indentation regarding paragraphs. When I tab a paragraph, it seems to tab the entire paragraph rather than just the first line. It looks like the first paragraph in this picture.
I've tried using the wrap paragraph function which seems to allow me to tab just the first line but when I paste it in Microsoft Word, it retains its wrap setting. Is there anyway that I can just indent just the first line without having to wrap it? Or am I approaching it all wrong?
For a global effect you can add this to Preferences > Settings-User:
"indent_subsequent_lines": false
Because I code too, I add it to Preferences > Settings-More > Syntax Specific-User.
To do this properly, open a .txt file (or your preferred file type) and it will open/create a settings file for the specific file type. Then paste in this and save:
{
"indent_subsequent_lines": false,
"tab_size": 4,
"translate_tabs_to_spaces": false
}
Sublime is a code editor, not a word processor. Although you may use it to type any kind of (plain) text, it's focused on editing code.
Sublime indents lines in a way that makes sense for a programming language. If you're looking for a tool to write anything like a report or a novel, maybe you should consider another tool.
Anybody, any idea??
which plugin is showing the indentation guide in the image below. Downloaded from http://leetless.de/images/vim/pyte.png

Thanks
A similar effect could be achieved with:
set list
set listchars+=tab:\│┈
Maybe with another filler character.
See :help 'list' and :help 'listchars'.
But…
As I was writing that answer it appeared to me that the answer was probably in the colorscheme's author's ~/.vimrc.
I think that you should really work on sharpening your deduction skills. It takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute to find that information by yourself:
Go to the site where you get that pic from: http://leetless.de
Look around for something Vim-related. The navigation is generally the first place to go and what do you find? "Vim themes" at http://leetless.de/vim.html
That image illustrates the first "theme" featured, that's a good sign. But let's read the introduction text (emphasis mine, typos his):
If you are curious what some other things are (like the indetation markers) and how they work, take a look at my .vimrc. Note that the encoding is broken with that file so the "set lcs" part is probably not copy-pasteable, follow the instructions in the comments above that line in order to find out how you can make your own unicode-lcs.
Wow! It looks like you are getting closer to the truth. Beware of the Cigarette Man!
Follow the link and do a search for lcs.
Done.
Not sure what you mean by "indentation guide", but I don't think any plugin is involved.
The first thing I see that you might be referring to is the characters at the beginning of lines indicating where there are tabs. That can be done by doing setting the listchars option to an appropriate value, turning the list option on, and selecting a color for the SpecialKey highlight group.
The other thing you might be referring to is highlighting of the column that currently contains the cursor. That can be done by turning on the cursorcolumn option. The color used for that can be set with the CursorColumn highlight group.
There's also a plugin, vim-indent-guides
Here's a nice plugin for vim: https://github.com/Yggdroot/indentLine
Does Dreamweaver dotted lines to show code indentation like in this image?
No, Dreamweaver does not display code indention marks like your screenshot does. About the closest you might get would be to turn on Hidden Characters (View -> Code View Options -> Hidden Characters). With that you'd be able to see the tab characters, but it would be nowhere near as good as what you're looking for.
There are no dotted line tabs marks in Dreamweaver, but to make sure every opening brace has a corresponding closing brace in PHP, you can use the Balance Braces button on the left hand toolbar. It sort of looks like this: {|}
Yes.
Go to View
Select Code View Options
Check the Hidden Characters option
Hope it Helps..
