I'm trying to switch from Komodo to Eclipse.

I can't figure out how to keep line-break characters from being shown in eclipse - looks like they are shown along with tabs and other whitespace characters.

Is there a way to show tabs and other whitespace characters but not line-break characters?

If you have Eclipse 3.7 you can disable them.

Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors -- Look for 'Show whitespace characters' and click on the link 'whitespace characters'.

In the Luna version, this configurability is now called "configure visibility" under "Show Withespace characters"

In your Eclipse, go to:

Window --> Preferences --> General --> Editors --> Text Editors

Click the highlighted link (configure visibility) in the check-box SHOW WHITESPACE CHARACTERS and select the check box as per your requirement.

Click the highlighted link
