column
Format standard input or file into multiple columns. Rows are filled before columns; default separator is whitespace.
- Format output for a 30 characters wide display:
printf "header1 header2\nbar foo\n" | column -c {{30}}
- Split columns automatically and auto-align in a tabular format:
printf "header1 header2\nbar foo\n" | column -t
- Specify column delimiter character for the -t option (e.g. "," for csv); default is whitespace:
printf "header1,header2\nbar,foo\n" | column -t -s{{,}}
- Fill columns before filling rows:
printf "header1\nbar\nfoobar\n" | column -c {{30}} -x
