I need to show file to new format as follow:
Code:
group size            time     file
---------------------------------------
other 58585739    2008     test1.csv
other 122            2008     testcsv.sh
other 164            19:28    testexplain.sh
other 29132428    2008     testq.csv
other 104            21:02    testshell.sh
other 792            21:39    xxx.txt

please suggest me how to do this?

Since you didn't put [code] tags around your desired format, it wasn't clear that you wanted spacing added to the lines, so this would work:

Code:
{
 read line
 printf "%s\n" "$line" "---------------------------------------"
 cat
} < filename

What I think you really want is:

Code:
awk '{ printf "%-6s %-10s %-6s %s\n", $1, $2, $3, $4 }
NR == 1 { print "---------------------------------------" }
' < filename
