so if I have a list like
thing=34
otherthign=67
etc...
how do I :s/ it to get all the numbers aligned?

@Efi I'm assuming vim?
Easy way is with a plugin, there are plenty of nice ones for aligning things
Can't think of a good way of doing it with search and replace, but here's what I'd do:
:4,18norm 0f=20i<SPACE><Ctrl+V><ESC>d20|
4,18 is the range you're working on, 20 is which column you want the = to be after, set that higher than the length of anything that'll be on the left
@troubleMoney wait, I get it
@Efi yeah, 0 puts you at the start of line, find the =, insert 20 spaces, delete backwards until you hit column 20
@Efi awesome, good to hear
@troubleMoney the exact thing I did was :%norm 0f=80i ^[d50|
@troubleMoney 0f=20i? what's that?
