The column utility formats its input into multiple columns. Rows are filled before columns.
Input is taken from file operands, or, by default, from the standard input.
Empty lines are ignored. Specify a set of characters to be used to delimit columns for the - t option. Determine the number of columns the input contains and create a table. Columns are delimited with whitespace, by default, or with the characters supplied using the - s option. Useful for pretty-printing displays.
