+.TH COLUMN 1 "January 2017" "util-linux" "User Commands"
+.SH NAME
+column \- columnate lists
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.BR column " [options]"
+.RI [ file ...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B column
+utility formats its input into multiple columns.  The util support three modes:
+.TP
+.B columns are filled before rows
+This is the default mode (required by backward compatibility).
+.TP
+.B rows are filled before columns
+This mode is enabled by option \fB-x, \-\-fillrows\fP
+.TP
+.B table
+Determine the number of columns the input contains and create a table.  This
+mode is enabled by option \fB-t, \-\-table\fP and columns formatting is
+possible to modify by \fB\-\-table-*\fP options.  Use this mode if not sure.
+.PP
+Input is taken from \fIfile\fR, or otherwise from standard input.  Empty lines
+are ignored and all invalid multibyte sequences are encoded by \\x<hex> convention.
+.PP
+.SH OPTIONS
+The argument \fIcolumns\fP for \fB\-\-table-*\fP options is comma separated
+list of the column names as defined by \fB\-\-table-columns\fP or it's column
+number in order as specified by input. It's possible to mix names and numbers.
+.PP
+.IP "\fB\-J, \-\-json\fP"
+Use JSON output format to print the table, the option
+\fB\-\-table\-columns\fP is required and the option \fB\-\-table\-name\fP is recommended.
+.IP "\fB\-c, \-\-output\-width\fP \fIwidth\fP"
+Output is formatted to a width specified as number of characters. The original
+name of this option is --columns; this name is deprecated since v2.30. Note that input
+longer than \fIwidth\fP is not truncated by default.
+.IP "\fB\-d, \-\-table\-noheadings\fP"
+Do not print header. This option allows to use logical column names on command line, but keep the header hidden when print the table.
+.IP "\fB\-o, \-\-output\-separator\fP \fIstring\fP"
+Specify the columns delimiter for table output (default is two spaces).
+.IP "\fB\-s, \-\-separator\fP \fIseparators\fP"
+Specify the possible input item delimiters (default is whitespace).
+.IP "\fB\-t, \-\-table\fP"
+Determine the number of columns the input contains and create a table.
+Columns are delimited with whitespace, by default, or with the characters
+supplied using the \fB\-\-output\-separator\fP option.
+Table output is useful for pretty-printing.
+.IP "\fB\-N, \-\-table-columns\fP \fInames\fP"
+Specify the columns names by comma separated list of names. The names are used
+for the table header or to address column in option arguments.
+.IP "\fB\-R, \-\-table-right\fP \fIcolumns\fP"
+Right align text in the specified columns.
+.IP "\fB\-T, \-\-table-truncate\fP \fIcolumns\fP"
+Specify columns where is allowed to truncate text when necessary, otherwise
+very long table entries may be printed on multiple lines.
+.IP "\fB\-E, \-\-table-noextreme\fP \fIcolumns\fP"
+Specify columns where is possible to ignore unusually long (longer than
+average) cells when calculate column width.  The option has impact to the width
+calculation and table formatting, but the printed text is not affected.
+
+The option is used for the last visible column by default.
+
+.IP "\fB\-e, \-\-table\-header\-repeat\fP"
+Print header line for each page.
+.IP "\fB\-W, \-\-table-wrap\fP \fIcolumns\fP"
+Specify columns where is possible to use multi-line cell for long text when
+necessary.
+.IP "\fB\-H, \-\-table-hide\fP \fIcolumns\fP"
+Don't print specified columns. The special placeholder '-' maybe be used to
+hide all unnamed columns (see --table-columns).
+.IP "\fB\-O, \-\-table-order\fP \fIcolumns\fP"
+Specify columns order on output.
+.IP "\fB\-n, \-\-table-name\fP \fIname\fP"
+Specify the table name used for JSON output. The default is "table".
+.IP "\fB\-L, \-\-table\-empty\-lines\fP"
+Insert empty line to the table for each empty line on input. The default
+is ignore empty lines at all.
+.IP "\fB\-r, \-\-tree\fP \fIcolumn\fP"
+Specify column to use tree-like output. Note that the circular dependencies and
+another anomalies in child and parent relation are silently ignored.
+.IP "\fB\-i, \-\-tree\-id\fP \fIcolumn\fP"
+Specify column with line ID to create child-parent relation.
+.IP "\fB\-p, \-\-tree\-parent\fP \fIcolumn\fP"
+Specify column with parent ID to create child-parent relation.
+.PP
+.IP "\fB\-x, \-\-fillrows\fP"
+Fill rows before filling columns.
+.IP "\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR"
+Display version information and exit.
+.IP "\fB\-h, \-\-help\fP"
+Display help text and exit.
+.SH ENVIRONMENT
+The environment variable \fBCOLUMNS\fR is used to determine the size of
+the screen if no other information is available.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+Print fstab with header line and align number to the right:
+.EX
+\fBsed 's/#.*//' /etc/fstab | column --table --table-columns SOURCE,TARGET,TYPE,OPTIONS,PASS,FREQ --table-right PASS,FREQ\fR
+.EE
+.PP
+Print fstab and hide unnamed columns:
+.EX
+\fBsed 's/#.*//' /etc/fstab | column --table --table-columns SOURCE,TARGET,TYPE --table-hide -\fR
+.EE
+.PP
+
+.PP
+Print a tree:
+.EX
+\fBecho -e '1 0 A\\n2 1 AA\\n3 1 AB\\n4 2 AAA\\n5 2 AAB' | column --tree-id 1 --tree-parent 2 --tree 3\fR
+1  0  A
+2  1  |-AA
+4  2  | |-AAA
+5  2  | `-AAB
+3  1  `-AB
+.EE
+.SH BUGS
+Version 2.23 changed the
+.B \-s
+option to be non-greedy, for example:
+.PP
+.EX
+\fBprintf "a:b:c\\n1::3\\n" | column  -t -s ':'\fR
+.EE
+.PP
+Old output:
+.EX
+a  b  c
+1  3
+.EE
+.PP
+New output (since util-linux 2.23):
+.EX
+a  b  c
+1     3
