@przemoc86: It shows how I deal with such problems. Longest word can be pretty long, so counting is not an option, but you can easily spot it, right? That's why visual editors are sometimes useful or even better than scripts. In complex case awk is still a better choice, but it would be a bit longer though.
@dandorman: I really dig it. I keep forgetting about Vim's column select mode, probably because I can't think of any practical uses for it. That's really pretty slick.
