What is the matter with printf/fprintf? These functions seem to be just what you want.. they have good formatting options - you can have your columns as wide/narrow as you want.

--EDIT--
Another way to do this would be to create your output line in a string first using sprintf (but that is very similar to printf/fprintf), and then use write(2) to write to the standart output.
