M-x browse-url RET (defaults to the URL at point).

I use the browse-url package. Here is my config

(global-set-key "\C-c\C-z." 'browse-url-at-point)
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-zb" 'browse-url-of-buffer)
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-zr" 'browse-url-of-region)
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-zu" 'browse-url)
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-zv" 'browse-url-of-file)

(add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
		  (lambda ()
			(local-set-key "\C-c\C-zf" 'browse-url-of-dired-file)))

(provide 'tc-browse-url)

I also customize the default browser settings so that it uses my
preferred browser. Use M-x customize-group <ret> browse-url <ret>

Code alignment

[Ewen Cartwright]

Hi all,

I'm a long-time vim user who is converting to emacs. 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:

  <cfset var intSupplierID = 0>
  <cfset var structSupplierInfo = 0>
  <cfset var intAbID = getAbID(arguments.intStockID)>

as:

  <cfset var intSupplierID      = 0>
  <cfset var structSupplierInfo = 0>
  <cfset var intAbID            = getAbID(arguments.intStockID)>

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

One simple way to achieve 'right side alignment' works by positioning  
the equals sign in some column and continue to write. In the next  
line press TAB and the cursor should advance to the next column of  
the line above. I've used it in text-mode, but I cannot exactly  
remember whether it worked in programming modes. In some (shell for  
example) a TAB is mis-interpreted as positioning the left most word ...

This "fails" a bit when the line above has some words spread all over  
it, but in the end a few TABs lead to the look you wish to have.

You could try creating a ColdFusion mode and using M-x align.

I tried this:

(define-derived-mode cf-mode java-mode "CF") 
(push 'cf-mode align-c++-modes)

and I got the alignment you want by marking the text and doing M-x
align. 

I know nothing at all about ColdFusion, so I don't know if java-mode is
the right thing from which to derive a ColdFusion mode.  All that really
matters, however, is that you have a mode name that you can add to
align-c++-modes.
