Put output into column.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
du -h /etc/* | column
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Reformat file with an explicit separator (`-s`):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
column -ts: /etc/passwd
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Give columns names (`-N`), so you can hide some (`-H`):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
column -ts: -N User,PW,UID,GID,Description,Home,shell -H PW,GID /etc/passwd
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Reorder with `-O` (unspecified items remain):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
column -ts: -N User,PW,UID,GID,Description,Home,shell -H PW,GID -O User,Description,shell /etc/passwd
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Output to json format with `-J`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
column -J -ts: -H PW,GID,shell -N User,PW,UID,GID,Description,Home,shell /etc/passwd
|
||
|
|
```
