Indeed an interesting question! I had use a new approach to do that

regards


vim9script

# We want to travel from this
#
# 1 2 3 4
# ( I W B ) # E
#
# to this
#
# 1 \r
# I w E
#
# I(dent) W(ord, the 1st one and its trailing space)
# B(egin) and E(nd) of the content split by the
# #(cursor) so the capture here is:
# w is the result of repeat(' ', len(W))
#
# KNOWN BUG:
# * at least one space is required at the end of line.
# (TODO fix with an alternative? like %#$?)
# NOTE:
# * If you want ArgIndentRhs to stay generic, all extra chars
# like \\ should be appended from the imap

var ArgIndentRhs = () => submatch(1) .. "\r"
.. submatch(2)
.. repeat(' ', len(submatch(3)))
.. submatch(4)

command -nargs=0 ArgIndent s!\v^((\s*)(\S+\s*).*%#)(.*)!\=ArgIndentRhs()!
inoremap \\<cr> \<c-o>:ArgIndent<cr>
set ai ci noet
