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

Yet another Vim alignment plugin without too much ambition.

This plugin clearly has less features than the other pre-existing ones
with the similar goals, but it is simpler, easier to use, and good enough
(or even better) for the most of the cases.

LesserAlign                                                 *LesserAlign*
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vim-lesser-align defines `LesserAlign` command in the visual mode.
For convenience, it is advised that you define a mapping for triggering
it in your .vimrc.

    vnoremap <silent> <Enter> :LesserAlign<cr>

Then a key sequence becomes a combination of 3 parts.

1. <Enter>
    - Shortcut for `:LesserAssign<cr>`
2. Integer (optional, default: 1)
    1       Alignment around 1st delimiter
    2       Alignment around 2nd delimiter
    ...
    *       Alignment around all delimiters (tabularize)
3. Delimiter
    =       Operators containing equals sign (=, ==, !=, +=, &&=, ...)
    <space>
    :
    ,
    |

Examples:

  <Enter>=         Alignment around 1st equals sign (and the likes)
  <Enter>2=        Alignment around 2nd equals sign (and the likes)
  <Enter>3=        Alignment around 3rd equals sign (and the likes)
  <Enter>*=        Alignment around all equals signs (and the likes)
  <Enter><space>   Alignment around 1st whitespace
  <Enter>2<space>  Alignment around 2nd whitespace
  <Enter>:         Alignment around 1st colon


Defining custom alignment rules
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

    let g:lesser_align_delimiters = {
    \ 'x': {
    \     'pattern':       '[xX]',
    \     'margin_left':   ' <<<',
    \     'margin_right':  '>>> ',
    \     'stick_to_left': 0
    \   }
    \ }
