Visual Studio: show whitespace and configure spaces instead of tabs

As I always forgets this and fresh Visual Studio installations favour tabs over spaces, here is how to get it into sane mode:

• show whitespace: [WayBack] Jeff Widmer’s Blog – How to show white space in Visual Studio
  • Menu: Edit, Advanced, View White Space
  • Toggle shortcut keys:
    • Ctrl R, Ctrl-W
    • Ctrl E, S
• force spaces instead of tabs: [WayBack] Visual Studio 2013 Tips & Tricks: Indentation (Tabs and Spaces) | Ed Glogowski, [WayBack] Visual Studio replace tab with 4 spaces? – Stack Overflow
  • Menu: Tools, Options, Text Editor, All Languages (or a specific language), Tabs, Insert Spaces (the internal variable is called InsertTabs)
  • Shortcut keys:
    • none, but you can create your own using a macro:  Visual Studio 2010 macros to set “Insert spaces” or “Keep tabs” in Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> C# -> Tabs page.
