What to align by. You can make it as simple as a single character or make it into a powerful regex.
Whether to align from the column where your caret is. For more details see _____

Allows you to say “If there’s not a space before this alignment, add one”.
e.g. If the furthest right was x= 7 and you aligned by equals, the add space makes sure that becomes x = 7.
