Stolen from an old message in LKML - I don't remember who's the author: highlight WhitespaceEOL ctermbg=red guibg=red match WhitespaceEOL /\s\+$/ Works without any glitches here (not "laggy"). But I don't use syntax coloring - never tried if it works with coloring or not. /mjt - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
