Is there a function which aligns tags in an org document?
As I could not find on, I tried it with a slightly changed function from
ledger.el:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun org-align (&optional column)
(interactive "p")
(if (= column 1)
(setq column 95))
(while (search-forward ":" nil t)
(backward-char)
(let ((col (current-column))
(beg (point))
target-col len)
(skip-chars-forward "-:a-zA-z")
(setq len (- (point) beg))
(setq target-col (- column len))
(if (< col target-col)
(progn
(goto-char beg)
(insert (make-string (- target-col col) ? )))
(move-to-column target-col)
(if (looking-back " ")
(delete-char (- col target-col))
(skip-chars-forward "^ \t")
(delete-horizontal-space)
(insert " ")))
(forward-line))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
It only works half because numbers are also skipped forward.
