It showed a tab as a small circle, but still had the tab-width - the rest was normal spaces. It let you ensure you had tabs, but showed the right layout. Tabs in source can compile a *lot* faster in large C++ source and headers. I also used it over NFS to do *nix programming before I got my vi-feet...
