;;; Commentary:
;; delim-col helps to prettify columns in a text region or rectangle.
;;
;; To use it, make sure that this file is in load-path and insert in your
;; .emacs:
;;
;; (require 'delim-col)
;;
;; If you have, for example, the following columns:
;;
;; a b c d
;; aaaa bb ccc ddddd
;; aaa bbb cccc dddd
;; aa bb ccccccc ddd
;;
;; And the following settings:
;;
;; (setq delimit-columns-str-before "[ ")
;; (setq delimit-columns-str-after " ]")
;; (setq delimit-columns-str-separator ", ")
;; (setq delimit-columns-separator "\t")
;;
;; If you select the lines above and type:
;;
;; M-x delimit-columns-region RET
;;
;; You obtain the following result:
;;
;; [ a , b , c , d ]
;; [ aaaa, bb , ccc , ddddd ]
;; [ aaa , bbb, cccc , dddd ]
;; [ aa , bb , ccccccc, ddd ]
;;
;; But if you select start from the very first b and the very last c and type:
;;
;; M-x delimit-columns-rectangle RET
;;
;; You obtain the following result:
;;
;; a [ b , c ] d
;; aaaa [ bb , ccc ] ddddd
;; aaa [ bbb, cccc ] dddd
;; aa [ bb , ccccccc ] ddd
;;
;; Note that `delimit-columns-region' operates over all text region
;; selected, extending the region start to the beginning of line and the
;; region end to the end of line. While `delimit-columns-rectangle'
;; operates over the text rectangle selected which rectangle diagonal is
;; given by the region start and end.
;;
;; `delimit-columns-region' is useful when you have columns of text that
;; are not well aligned, like:
;;
;; horse apple bus
;; dog pineapple car
;; porcupine strawberry airplane
;;
;; `delimit-columns-region' and `delimit-columns-rectangle' handle lines
;; with different number of columns, like:
;;
;; horse apple bus
;; dog pineapple car EXTRA
;; porcupine strawberry airplane
