I had a quick look at tui-printf and it looks pretty good. you can get rid of 2 sub shell calls by:

replace WIDTH=$( [ -z $COLUMNS ] && tput cols || printf $COLUMNS ) with WIDTH=${COLUMNS:-$( tput cols )}

replaceEMPTY="$(printf '%*s' $WIDTH)" with printf -v EMPTY '%*s' $WIDTH

Of course, if you made is a function definition and sourced it in your main script(s) you would save another sub shell call.
