How can i edit this data in vim in a tabular fashion?
When i press tab key from column 1 in row 3, the cursor must move to the exclamatory mark position.
Note: Exclamatory mark is just a marker position where i desire the cursor to go and it is not the real character in place.
This can be done using org-table mode in emacs but it is overkill at times.
So i am looking for simpler ways in vim/shell?

Note: If you need more specific functions, you can search vim plugins, other choice is export the xx column in other file (with cut or awk) if you want more solutions.
