vim - 如何改变 vim 显示硬标签的方式

Question

如何让 vim 将制表符显示为 4 个空格？我尝试使用 set list 和 set listchars 但这只会更改代表选项卡的 8 个字符。我想保留制表符，但让它们占用 4 个空格而不是 8 个。这可能吗？

:h 'ts'

你会看到:

'tabstop' 'ts'      number  (default 8)
            local to buffer
    Number of spaces that a <Tab> in the file counts for.  Also see
    |:retab| command, and 'softtabstop' option.

    Note: Setting 'tabstop' to any other value than 8 can make your file
    appear wrong in many places (e.g., when printing it).

    There are four main ways to use tabs in Vim:
    1. Always keep 'tabstop' at 8, set 'softtabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to 4
       (or 3 or whatever you prefer) and use 'noexpandtab'.  Then Vim
       will use a mix of tabs and spaces, but typing <Tab> and <BS> will
       behave like a tab appears every 4 (or 3) characters.
    2. Set 'tabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to whatever you prefer and use
       'expandtab'.  This way you will always insert spaces.  The
       formatting will never be messed up when 'tabstop' is changed.
    3. Set 'tabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to whatever you prefer and use a
       |modeline| to set these values when editing the file again.  Only
       works when using Vim to edit the file.
    4. Always set 'tabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to the same value, and
       'noexpandtab'.  This should then work (for initial indents only)
       for any tabstop setting that people use.  It might be nice to have
       tabs after the first non-blank inserted as spaces if you do this
       though.  Otherwise aligned comments will be wrong when 'tabstop' is


   changed.
