==============
|
|
|
|
|
Sometimes, it's useful to line up text. Naturally, it's nicer to have the
|
|
|
|
|
computer do this for you, since aligning things by hand quickly becomes
|
|
|
|
|
unpleasant. While there are other plugins for aligning text, the ones I've
|
|
|
|
|
tried are either impossibly difficult to understand and use, or too simplistic
|
|
|
|
|
to handle complicated tasks. This plugin aims to make the easy things easy
|
|
|
|
|
and the hard things possible, without providing an unnecessarily obtuse
|
|
|
|
|
interface. It's still a work in progress, and criticisms are welcome.
