Thanks, Gary!

In addition, there's also AutoAlign which works with Align.vim...

AutoAlign typically allows one to auto-align on =s as one types.

a=1
bbb=2
z=4

becomes, as one types: (the following looks correct in monospaced fonts)

a = 1
bbb = 2
z = 4

It also provides AutoAlign-ing for a number of other things, such as
Latex tables (it triggers auto-align'ing on pairs of backslashes).

You can get AutoAlign from:

http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=884
-or-
http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#AUTOALIGN (most
up-to-date)

To install it:

vim autoalign.vba.gz
:so %
:q

(presuming that you have gunzip so that the vimball can be decompressed;
if you're on Windows,
see :help vimball-windows for how to get a gunzip tool)
