You should make it explicit that the command wants a region using the
interactive spec. Also, `align-regexp' mangles the regexp given to it a
bit. I guess this does what you want:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun fluca1978/align-assignments (beg end)
(interactive "r")
(align-regexp beg end "\\(\\s-*\\)="))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
When applied to the following region
a = b
ab = t + i
flubble = 17
foo = bar - baz
it aligns it like so:
a = b
ab = t + i
flubble = 17
foo = bar - baz
