Yes, I know I can align things using spaces but in your example above I
have to actually enter all those spaces between "Value 1" and the "|" at
the end of the column. I'm looking for a shortcut key to take me there
with one keystroke.
Ideally the ^ characters would 'set TAB' and then hitting some key code
would automatically space to the next column. Even better it could
enter the | as well.
Thus I enter:-
^ Col 1 ^ Col 2 ^
Then for the data rows I can hit (say) CTRL-T and the correct number of
spaces and a | character are output to take me to the next column.
