Stewart,
It looked like it was supposed to do something like that, but nothing
seemed to happen with my Ruby file. I'll give it a shot in a C++ file
and see what happens there. I still can't figure out what the "a" is
doing though.

The "a" is the English article "a / an" where the "i" is the adjective
"inner". Both apply to object selection commands. So =a{ is "format a
{-block" while i{ is "select inner {-block". Similarly for daw (delete a
word), ciW (change inner WORD), etc. The difference with "a" and "i" is
that the former includes the whitespace on one side of the object, the
latter doesn't.
See ":help objects".
Best regards,
Tony.
