I have looked through my books and googled ... Tried serveral things without success ... I would like to run the output of a bash command that produces 1 field per line output through sort and then output in 3 columns. I have looked at printf, fmt, column, and so on. For example, rpm -qa | sort 2>&1 | column -c 2 rpm -qa | sort | column -c 2 Or say I have a file with a list of sorted names, for example, [admin@www admin]$ rpm -qa | sort -o rpm.txt Then I want to output the file with column -c 2 rpm.txt Hopefully you get the idea. Would someone please point me in the correct direction. I am going around in circles.
