README

        
Tabular

==============

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.

See [Aligning Text with Tabular.vim](http://vimcasts.org/episodes/aligning-text-with-tabular-vim/)

for a screencast that shows how Tabular.vim works.

See [doc/Tabular.txt](http://raw.github.com/godlygeek/tabular/master/doc/Tabular.txt)

for detailed documentation.

Installation

==============

## Vim 8.1+

No third-party package manager is required! Clone into:

`.vim/pack/plugins/start`

Make sure you include `packloadall` in your `.vimrc`.

## Pathogen

    mkdir -p ~/.vim/bundle

    cd ~/.vim/bundle

    git clone https://github.com/godlygeek/tabular.git

Once help tags have been generated (either using Pathogen's `:Helptags`

command, or by pointing vim's `:helptags` command at the directory where you

installed Tabular), you can view the manual with `:help tabular`.

See [pathogen.vim](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen) for help or for package manager installation.
