I want to align the below code:
Sample Code:
.abc (abc)
.bcd (dfdfd)
.xyzdddddd (xyzdfdd)
After alignment:
.abc (abc)
.bcd (dfdfd)
.xyzdddddd (xyzdfdd)
How can we align this with Vim?

If you're on linux, you can call an external tool to do the job (no need for a plugin):
:%!column -t
See help range!:
:{range}![!]{filter} [!][arg] :range!
Filter {range} lines through the external program
{filter}...
Emacs M-x align-regexp (
Does exactly what you are asking for.
Searched 'vim equivalent of emacs align regexp'
and the answer is that there is a plugin called
'easy align'
See

Here is a link to easy align with instructions:
