align-1.0.0: description + notes
align is a general-purpose text filter tool that helps vertically
align columns in string-separated tables of input text. With
whitespace-separated columns, you can often use it without arguments
and it'll guess the right thing to do. Otherwise, you can specify
arguments to direct how the columns are separated on
input and rejoined in the aligned output.
Also included in this package is width, another
general-purpose text filter tool that helps you work with the
printing width or length of lines of input text. For example, it can
print the width, location and/or content for its longest line or lines
of input, or for all lines.
Type "align -h" or "width -h" for command
line options.

page has more information.
