How to convert a single column into several rows and columns?
I have a program which gives me the output as a single column with hundreds of rows like:


213
314
324
324
123

I want to be able to create a new file from this file which allows me to set the number of rows and columns in the new file, i.e. for this example, if I specify 3 rows and 2 columns, the output should look like

213 314
324 324
123


Is it possible to do this in Unix or using a pearl script?


Thank You,
Ashton.
