Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Arranging Haphazard output in readable format Post 302757939 by drl on Friday 18th of January 2013 08:14:09 AM

Hi.

Using the perl utility align on the data in file data1:
Code:
% align -s '/\|' -ar -j_ -g3 data1
     123         456    789        0
67345123               3455        1
 7124563   432343414          345324

One can select the field separation pattern as "|', the alignment is right, the output separation is done with space characters, and the gutter is 3 spaces, so that numbers can be easily compared. There are generally appropriate defaults for these, but you can change them if desired, as illustrated

See the page for details and download: align ? Freecode

Best wishes .. cheers, drl

       calibrate_ppa [options]

DESCRIPTION

       Produces various PixMap (PPM) files used for calibrating pnm2ppa.

       This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       the PixMap should be viewed or printed by other means.

OPTIONS

       -g, --gamma
	      produce  gamma.ppm (10MB, used in color calibration).

       -h, --help
	      displays this help text.

       -o <outfile>
	      output to file <outfile>, "-o -" means stdout (default)

       -p <n> create test pattern number <n>

       --align
	      pattern 0:  align print heads. (default)

       --test pattern 1:  test alignment.

       --clean
