Frequently Asked Questions

What are nice columns?
Nice columns are text where each column has a fixed width so values align vertically. The tool splits by a delimiter (e.g. tab or pipe) and pads each cell.
Which delimiter can I use?
Common choices: tab (\t), pipe (|), comma, or multiple spaces. You specify the delimiter; the tool pads to the longest cell in each column.
Does it work with headers?
Yes. The first line is often treated as a header; all lines are aligned the same way so headers line up with data.
