That works, especiall with
(move-to-column column t) to go to column even if there are no spaces.
I am trying to construct ordered display of various items. Maybe I
should use skeleton for that. I have 2 columns and in first one
sometimes, sometimes not, appear various properties, in second one
sometimes, sometimes not appear various properties. But in any case I
want them aligned.
If anybody knows what is usually used in Emacs to align text, may let me know.
