Well, boilerplate header from 'echo' and 'tr' the '/' to a tab is a start.

Want justification? I wrote a C fixed pitch formatter, autotab.c, or you can go to Excel or HTML!

KSH, at least, does not have mutli-dimensional arrays built in.

You can write you're own code to implement them....for example, these are functions I wrote:
Code:
###################################################################################
# Main line here
###################################################################################
init_array

create_array LIST[3,3,1]

set_array_index_name LIST[2]="Name,Role,Salary"

set_array LIST[1,,]="arun,manager,200000"
set_array LIST[2,,]="pradeep,engineer,10000"
set_array LIST[3,,]="karthik,teamlead,30000"

print_array LIST

get_array LIST[1,1,1]

Ouput:
Code:
Z=1     Name    Role     Salary
       ┌───────┬────────┬──────┐
      1│   arun│ manager│200000│
       ├───────┼────────┼──────┤
      2│pradeep│engineer│ 10000│
       ├───────┼────────┼──────┤
      3│karthik│teamlead│ 30000│
       └───────┴────────┴──────┘

Sounds cool, purdym. But it does no one any good unless you post the code for the functions you wrote.

I've thought about releasing the code, I spent a lot of time developing it. I can't guarantee its bug free. Perhaps someone has time see if it works on their system.

maybe try something this
Code:
# cat file
arun/manager/200000
pradeep/engineer/10000
karthik/teamlead/30000

Code:
# ./justdoit file
    name        role       salary
  =================================
    arun      manager       200000
 pradeep     engineer        10000
 karthik     teamlead        30000

Code:
#!/bin/bash
F="==========="
echo -e "    name\trole\t   salary\n  $F$F$F"
while read -r l ; do
array=($(echo $l|sed 's/[/]/ /g' )) ;c=${#array[@]}
for((i=0;i<$c;i++)) ; do arrpr=(${arrpr[@]} ${array[i]} )
done;array=();printf "%8s %12s %12s\n" ${arrpr[@]};arrpr=();done<$1
