Reconfigure Display of unicode-chars

Reconfigure Display of unicode-chars

Hello!

When authoring XML in pure unicode, the use of space-characters, such as #x2002, #x2003, #x2009, (just to name a few), etc. is very common.

However, in the edit-window, we can only see a space there and cannot distinguish between the several characters.

We'd like to show all the different kind of spaces, etc. like you can switch them on in MS Word, Adobe Indesign, etc.

We're talking here about the "real" characters, not the entities, such as hairsp, etc.

We'd like to have a mapping-table (similar to the charent.cf), where we can map Unicode-Characters to Display-Characters.

So to say

#x2009 => #xA4 (which is the character sign, but would be an example, how to differentiate the space-chars from each other).

Thanks for consideration,

your WindchillTeam@DATACOPY
