Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mc
When I built and installed mc-4.6.2~git20080311 I found that it lacks
the feature I love the most: visible tabs and whitespace in the editor.
I found that the cause is debian/patches/utf8/mc-utf8.patch, which
pretty much removes the heart of the feature (search for visible_tabs
and visible_tws handled in case '\t' and case ' ' in file
mc/edit/editdraw.c). Is this deliberate or accidental?
The way I see it it doesn't make any sense removing it (it has nothing
to do with utf8), so I think it was done accidentally by some
maintainer.
Please review and get this feature back! :)
