Matlab Editor - show tabs and whitespace characters
matlab
Solution
Although I don't think you can do this in the MATLAB editor, you can choose to use a different editor as your default. Under Preferences go to Editor/Debugger, and select "Text Editor" rather than "MATLAB Editor" (you need to supply the full path).
If this is set, then `.m` files etc. opened from within MATLAB should open in your preferred editor, not the MATLAB editor.
Problem
I've been writing a lot of code in Matlab 2012a recently, and I'm wondering if there's some way to show whitespace characters (tabs, spaces, etc.) like in Notepad++ or Sublime Text. I've been Googling around and did a search on SO, but the internet seems oddly quiet. Thanks!
