One thing I miss from vim is a generic code alignment tool (like Align.vim, if anyone's familiar with it) for formatting code like: as: As you may be able to tell, this is ColdFusion code, so natty C or Java-specific code-formatting tools won't help much -- I guess I'll need something completely language-agnostic as I doubt anyone has written anything specific to ColdFusion. If anyone knows of anything I could use in emacs to do this I'd be very grateful! Cheers, /ewen
