See line breaks and carriage returns in editor

Question

Does anyone know of a text editor on Linux that allows me to see line breaks and carriage returns? Does Vim support this feature?

Answer 1

You can view break lines using gedit editor.

First, if you don't have installed:

sudo apt-get install gedit

Now, install gedit plugins:

sudo apt-get install gedit-plugins

and select Draw Spaces plugin, enter on Preferences, and chose Draw new lines

Using VSCode you can install Line endings extension.

Sublime Text 3 has a plugin called RawLineEdit that will display line endings and allow the insertion of arbitrary line-ending type

shift + ctrl + p and start type the name of the plugin, and toggle to show line ending.
