Sublime Text 2 - View whitespace characters

Question

How can Sublime Text show non printable characters (I\'m interested in SPACEs and TABs)?

Answer 1

I know this is an old thread, but I like my own plugin that can cycle through whitespace modes (none, selection, and all) via a single shortcut. It also provides menu items under a View | Whitespace menu.

Hopefully people will find this useful - it is used by a lot of people :)
