VNL-ALIGN(1) vnlog VNL-ALIGN(1)

vnl-align - aligns vnlog columns for easy interpretation by humans

 $ cat tst.vnl
 # w x y z
 -10 40 asdf -
 -20 50 - 0.300000
 -30 10 whoa 0.500000
 $ vnl-align tst.vnl
 # w  x   y      z
 -10 40 asdf -
 -20 50 -    0.300000
 -30 10 whoa 0.500000

The basic usage is

 vnl-align logfile

The arguments are assumed to be the vnlog files. If no arguments are given, the input comes from STDIN.

This is very similar to "column -t", but handles "#" lines properly:

1. The first "#" line is the legend. For the purposes of alignment, the leading
"#" character and the first column label are treated as one column

2. All other "#" lines are output verbatim.
