In mac using Text - Mate we can easily auto - indent the characters in the file for Ruby on Rails code in various rb,erb or html.erb files. I am searching for a plugin for GEdit for the same purpose after trying hard I am unable to find any suitable plugin which can work for me. Any clues which plugin I should go for and how to get that ?

the plugins specified in second link adds auto-completion and some other good features but not solves the real solution of aligning text in proper indentation like in textmate or other editors– Sahil GroverJun 25, 2012 at 16:41

In the Preferences menu of gedit navigate to theEditor tab, there you can enable automatic indentation (tick the box to activate it).

Yes I have seen that which states smart indentation. I have checked that but that doesn't align the text which i insert later on. If I start writing code it aligns only that. But in case I have already written the code and now I want to Indent it properly how to do that @kosaidpo Dec 12, 2011 at 6:09
