Sorry, making a fool of myself, that should be

:setl list

and

:setl nolist

I blame Friday afternoon! :-)

🤔 so display the listchars and then don't display the listchars?

This helps in that the listchars marks are not copied/pasted, but tabs are still printed and copied/pasted as spaces...

Here ya go ☕☕☕ 😉

The important part is the `noexpandtabs` which you apparently missed. The `listchars` was only meant to make the difference visible. BTW you may also want `:retab!` to convert already existing runs of spaces to tabs and/or `:setl ts=4` (or 2) to make the real tabs take up less screen real estate.
