    Unpopular opinion? More like controversial opinion amiright? At the time of my comment, almost as many people agree with you (downvotes), as disagree with you (upvotes).

    All I can say on the subject is that if you choose to speak about your views, you should do it with respect to others. You wont change anyones view point by shitting on their beliefs, athiest or otherwise.


  • command! -range -nargs=1 PadColumns call PadColumns(<line1>, <line2>, <args>)
    
    function! PadColumns(start, end, columns)
        execute a:start.','.a:end.'s/\(.*\)\zs\s*$/\='.'repeat(" ", a:columns - len(submatch(1)))'
    endfunction
    

    Use by typing in Normal mode :PadColumns 20. This will add spaces after the line or selected lines to the column you specify (in this case, 20).

    You could probably improve this by getting the length of the longest line and so you dont need to specify the specific column to add spaces to (20), and instead just add say 5 spaces after longest line for all lines.

    Reminds me of the “Op” wars on IRC. All users would be given @ status and the point was to kick everyone before you got kicked. Writing scripts for this was my first “taste” at programming.
