I mostly do perl code, some c and cshell
I like to have things lined up. The auto indent is good, but I would
like to extend the function of the tab key.
I have this code
my $a = undef;
my $bcd = undef;
my $someLongVariableName = undef;
I prefer to have all my ='s to line up. The little bit of time it
takes
for me to line them up, I believe more than pays for it's self in
maintance
I would like to have the tab to the auto indenting, but I would also
like to have it insert 2 spaces each it cannot do auto indenting.
my $a = undef;
my $bcd = undef;
my $someLongVariableName = undef;

A tip for you to align those '='s is the command align-regexp.
Just in case you didn't knew!
