vim trick to align blocks/end keywords in Ruby?

Question

Is there a way to simply have my blocks and their closing end keyword align properly with vim? If I have a function which is nested with several conditions, things can start to get ugly fast. Can vim save the day?

Answer 1

Sure. Just select the relevant block of code and press =.

Answer 2

There's also a nice Vim plugin called endwise that automatically inserts the ends for you.

Answer 3

gg=G

(go to top, re-indent all the way down to the bottom)
