File/string formatter script?

Hi all,

I have a config file that contains some text as below:

Code:
server01        :/u01/app/oracle/admin/db01/adump              :*.dmp,5        :compress         :/bin/gzip
server01        :/u01/app/oracle/admin/db04/adump             :*.aud,5        :remove         :/bin/rm
server01        :/u01/app/oracle/admin/db06/adump              :*.log,5        :remove         :logrotate

Can anyone advise how is the best way to be able to format the text so that they lined up neatly?

At the moment, am doing it manually. Thinking I should use awk and printf using the max string of each column as the basis for the max length of the column for each field. Using space seems to be better than using tab as well.

Any feedback much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

MONO-SERVER4-ADMIN(8)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     MONO-SERVER4-ADMIN(8)

NAME
mono-server4-admin - mono-server4 hosts file creator, hosts file is part of the debianized mod_mono package SYNOPSIS
mono-server4-admin [action] [args] OPTIONS Actions: add Use 'add' if you want to create an application and want mono-server4 scripts to manage it del If you want to remove an application Args: --path The path where you have your aspx files, MUST EXISTS!, required only with add action --app The name of your application --libs If you have dlls outside your path, you must use this! --port Needed if you are running multiple virtual hosts in different ports in Apache --vhost If you want to add asp.net support to a virtualhost you must use this. Example: foobar.com DESCRIPTION
mono-server4-admin is a perl tool to adminstrate your ASP.NET webapps that will be executed with mod_mono. When you try to add an application, mono-server4-admin will verify that your path exists, if it is, it will add a directory inside /etc/xsp/conf.d with the name of your app, and also as a file with the filename format: 10_appname. This file will have the information (path, app). So, when mono-xsp-update is executed it will read those dirs and create a debian.webapp in /etc/xsp that the xsp daemon will read, also with a mono-server4-hosts that will have your directory settings with apache directives. Apache will read mono-server4-hosts.conf! AUTHOR
