How about something like this:
inoremap <silent> = =<Esc>:call <SID>replaceEqualSign()<CR>a
fun! s:replaceEqualSign()
let pos = virtcol('.')
let n = substitute(getline('.'),'\v([A-z0-9])\=','\1 = ','g')
call setline('.',n)
call cursor(line('.'), pos + 2)
endfun

Hi,
I am trying to replace "=" by " = " only when the previous character is [A-z0-9]
so, "blah=" should be dynamically replaced by "blah = ", but not !=.
In a vim, I can do this by
%s/\v([A-z0-9])\=/\1 = /g
but, can it be dynamic, or atleast check the current line for every = entered
and replace that?
You might be able to use an abbreviation to do this. I have not done
this but it seems like you can write a function and have the
abbreviation call the function. See the example under :help
abbreviation where a function called Eatchar is used to delete a space
typed after an abbreviation. You might be able to write a function
that checks to see what character appears before the "=" character and
insert a space if necessary.
Cheers,
Ethan Alan
