* column: Address fill-order confusion in documentationdana2019-02-221-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historical versions of column have described the default fill order as rows-then-columns and the -x order as columns-then-rows. This was misleading at best, and the util-linux implementation was updated to clarify the actual behaviour in 3e094e5fe2 (March 2017). However, the other implementations (used by *BSD, macOS, Debian, &al.) continue to use the previous wording, and a user comparing them could easily get the false impression that util-linux column has exactly the opposite fill behaviour from BSD column. To address this, a note is added to the man page explaining the change and clarifying that, despite what the BSD documentation says, the two implementations behave identically in this regard.

* column: add --table-empty-linesKarel Zak2018-08-231-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The option allows to add empty line to the table. The default behavior is to ignore empty lines at all. echo -e "A\nAA\nAAA\n\nAAAA" | ./column --table A AA AAA AAAA $ echo -e "A\nAA\nAAA\n\nAAAA" | ./column --table --table-empty-lines A AA AAA AAAA Addresses: https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux/issues/593 Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>

* column: make more obvious what is default behaviorKarel Zak2017-03-011-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The man page contains mistakes. The default is to fill columns before lines: $ printf 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa\nBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB\nXXXXXXX\nYYYYYYYYYYY\nZZZZZ' > data $ column --columns 80 < data aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa XXXXXXX ZZZZZ BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB YYYYYYYYYYY $ column --fillrows --columns 80 < data aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB XXXXXXX YYYYYYYYYYY ZZZZZ The patch also rename functions in the code to make it more obvious for code readers.
