Seeing someone going out of their way to line up equal signs or any other operator unless they're assigning some huge number of variables/array indices/etc always strikes me of showoffish. Even if there is a huge number of assignments I still don't like it. It might make the code marginally more readable, but it makes it a pain to edit.

The problem with code readability is that people don't agree what is readable.

PHP Code:

function foo( bar )
{
  doSomething( pi );
} 


is perfectly readable for myself and Jave (who also scripts on Vesporia, albeit lightly). However, most think that's hard to read

The only occasion I add ugly spaces like that, is if I have an array within two (), such as:

PHP Code:

randomFunction( { "Foo", "Bar", "Baz" } ); 


EDIT: Actually, when I scan through my scripts, I haven't done that for a looooong time. It seems I do like this:

PHP Code:

randomFunction({ "Foo", "Bar", "Baz" });

temp.foo = {
                  "Foo", // Probably wouldn't do this for a short list like this, mainly for multi-dimensional arrays.
                  "Bar",
                  "Baz"
                };
randomFunction( foo ); 


Sorry, can't open RC right now (or anything with a fixed-width font), so they aren't aligned.

That hurts my eyes.

Yeah, like I said, most people don't like it.
