Concealing Characters

You can customize concealing characters, if your font provides the glyph you want, by defining one or more of the following variables:

let g:javascript_conceal_function             = "ƒ"
let g:javascript_conceal_null                 = "ø"
let g:javascript_conceal_this                 = "@"
let g:javascript_conceal_return               = "⇚"
let g:javascript_conceal_undefined            = "¿"
let g:javascript_conceal_NaN                  = "ℕ"
let g:javascript_conceal_prototype            = "¶"
let g:javascript_conceal_static               = "•"
let g:javascript_conceal_super                = "Ω"
let g:javascript_conceal_arrow_function       = "⇒"
let g:javascript_conceal_noarg_arrow_function = "🞅"
let g:javascript_conceal_underscore_arrow_function = "🞅"

You can enable concealing within VIM with:

set conceallevel=1

OR if you wish to toggle concealing you may wish to bind a command such as the following which will map <LEADER>l (leader is usually the \ key) to toggling conceal mode:

map <leader>l :exec &conceallevel ? "set conceallevel=0" : "set conceallevel=1"<CR>
