A userscript that shows whitespace (space, tabs and carriage returns) in code blocks

  • Only leading spaces & tabs are shown.
  • It works on file and diff-view pages.
  • A toggle button is added to each file block and allows you to enable or disable the whitespace view.
  • A CSS tab-size of 2 is set by this script. This will be overridden by GitHub-Dark tab settings.
  • It does not interfere with the selection, copying & pasting of the code.
  • This script is not fully compatible with the GitHub code folding userscript as they interfere with each other.

File view

Diff view

† A leading space, + or - on is added to every line by GitHub.
