Adding Trailing Spaces to a file - UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

222001459 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-04-2004

I have a text file which is not fixed width. I want to put trailing spaces to each line and make it a 100 byte fixed width file.

Can someone please help me as soon as possible?

Thanks,
Denis
