Description gdcianfri-eclipse CLA 2005-08-04 09:39:45 EDT 
Currently it appears that the Eclipse editor cannot display non-printable ASCII
characters, such as form-feed.  Often it is useful to have a visual indication
that these characters are present, such as a placeholder printable character at
that location in the file.  Additionally, such a feature should allow for the
displayed non-printable ASCII characters to be copied and pasted.
