whitespace-mode is a minor mode to visualize blanks (tabs, spaces, newline, etc).

Basic setup

Whitespace-mode is already bundled with Emacs.

Use M-x whitespace-mode to activate it on the current buffer, or add the following in your Emacs configuration file:

(whitespace-mode 1)


You may also use M-x global-whitespace-mode to activate this mode globally for all buffers. The same effect is achieved by adding the following in your Emacs configuration file:

(global-whitespace-mode 1)
