ascii - Why does vi show the ends of lines as $? -


i using vi on mac, , when i've run :set list, $ (dollar sign) character displayed @ end of each line. confusion $ not ascii value newline. why $ represent end of line?

$ chosen default value display represent line, because $ command move cursor end of line, chosen because $ represents end of line anchor in regular expression. there's nothing magical it, , can use character want setting listchars. :help listchars details.
