I played for a while with column[1] from your branch. Manual page
examples should include a version of the last example sent to mail
list.
$ column /proc/self/mountinfo \
--table-columns=ID,PARENT,MAJMIN,ROOT,TARGET,VFS-OPTS,PROP,SEP,TYPE,SOURCE,FS-OPTS
\
--table-hide=SOURCE,MAJMIN,ROOT,PROP,SEP,TYPE,VFS-OPTS,FS-OPTS \
--table-order=TARGET,ID,PARENT \
--tree TARGET --tree-id ID --tree-parent PARENT
With that small improvement (and rebase on top of latest origin/master)
I would say this change set is ready to be merged.
