インデントを縦線で表示
show vertical lines to guide indentation
** Screencast
Current block only

All blocks

** Usage
Require this script
: (require 'indent-guide)
and call command =M-x indent-guide-mode=.
If you want to enable =indent-guide-mode= in all buffers, call function =indent-guide-global-mode=.
: (indent-guide-global-mode)
** Configuration
Column lines are propertized with =indent-guide-face=. So you may configure this face to make lines more pretty in your colorscheme.
: (set-face-background 'indent-guide-face "dimgray")
If you want indent-guide to show guide lines only in idle-time, you can set delay.
: (setq indent-guide-delay 0.1)
You may also change the character for guides.
: (setq indent-guide-char ":")
NOT RECOMMENDED: To show not only one guide line but all guide lines recursively, set =indent-guide-recursive= non-nil.
: (setq indent-guide-recursive t)
=indent-guide-recursive= seems buggy and laggy, so I recommend the =highlight-indentation= package for that purpose.
** Comparisons with highlight-indentation
look and feel
better block detection in LISP-like languages
: (foo (foo : | (foobar baz | (foobar baz : | (foobar | (foobar : | (qux)))) | (qux)))) |

: indent-guide highlight-indentation
supports TABs
worse in performance, especially when you open a file that includes very large, deep blocks
** Known Limitations
does not work perfectly with following modes (commands) :
