The Tabular plugin: http://github.com/godlygeek/tabular

" nice indentation for Cucumber scripts (if you're not already nesting)
:'<,'>Tabularize /^.*\(Given\|And\|When\|Then\) /l0

So that:

  Scenario: Admin user should be able to access categories index from form library page
    Given I am an admin user with the login "administrator" and the password "administrator"
    And there is a active study
    And a category exists with name: "Behavioral", category_type: "_treatment"
    And I login as "administrator" authenticating with "administrator"
    When I follow "Categories" within "#treatment_lists_categories_link"
    Then I should be on the admin categories page
    And I should see "Categories" within "#content_panel"
    And I should see "Behavioral" within "#content_panel"

Can become:

  Scenario: Admin user should be able to access categories index from form library page
    Given I am an admin user with the login "administrator" and the password "administrator"
    And   there is a active study
    And   a category exists with name: "Behavioral", category_type: "_treatment"
    And   I login as "administrator" authenticating with "administrator"
    When  I follow "Categories" within "#treatment_lists_categories_link"
    Then  I should be on the admin categories page
    And   I should see "Categories" within "#content_panel"
    And   I should see "Behavioral" within "#content_panel"

When you've selected the second through last line.

To add a shortcut ("tabular pattern"), put:

  AddTabularPattern! cucumber /^.*\(Given\|And\|When\|Then\) /l0

in ~/.vim/after/plugin/TabularMaps.vim. Now you can use ":'<,'>Tabularize cucumber" instead of the whole pattern.
