How to show characters when using the change “c” command

Question

I know there is a vim setting that allows you to show characters when using the change command, I just can't find what it is.

Ex:

"This is a<ci"> string"

Inside the <> is where I use the ci" command to change the quotes. The setting I am talking about would change the string to something like:

"<>This is a strin$"

You can get vim to behave this way using :set compatible, but this puts it into a mode that is closer to "pure" vi, so you probably lose out on other vim enhancements.
