To see the whole list of possible keys and values,\nsee [:help listchars](https://neovim.io/doc/user/options.html#'listchars').\n\nTo use the user's *listchars* as the default base generic configuration instead\nof `vshow`'s default base configuration (which is the same as Neovim's default),\nset the `user_default` flag to `true` in the configuration table passed to the\n`setup` function. Its value is `false` by default.\n\nHere is a list with `vshow`'s default options:\n\n```lua\nlocal config = {\n  {\n    tab = '\u003e ',\n    trail = '-',\n    nbsp = '+',\n  },\n}\n```\n\nMode-specific settings overwrite generic settings for all modes.\n\nTo make a character invisible for all modes, set its assigned value to `0` in\nthe configuration table for all modes, like so:\n\n```lua\nrequire('vshow').setup({\n  {\n    tab = 0,\n  },\n})\n```\n\nTo make a character invisible for a specific mode, set its assigned value to `0`\nin the configuration table of that mode, like so:\n\n```lua\nrequire('vshow').setup({\n  line = {\n    tab = 0,\n  },\n})\n```\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Foxtna%2Fvshow.nvim","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Foxtna%2Fvshow.nvim","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Foxtna%2Fvshow.nvim/lists"}
