Hey Micha,
I'm finally back to this problem. I added your code
and it did something, but not what I'd hoped :)
Initially both cases showed up as black which didn't
surprise me. However I then changed 'gray10' in the
tab-face to 'red10' but still both spaces and tabs
were showing up as black squares. My immediate
problem is solved as I ended up using hexl-mode which
isn't too user friendly but does allow me to
differentiate the two. A quick question though: How
could I discover what allowable values I could use
other than 'gray10?' I'm pretty new to emacs. I read
the doc for custom-set-faces but it left me confused.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.
