	Does anyone know a way to format output?  Not using nroff?  I
want to embed some tabs in my output so they appear in nice columns.  
I would also like to know how to delete certain fields:

My current output:

vcsc538  J. Loh     -csh
vcsc538  J. Loh     rn 

What I would like to see:

vcsc538  J. Loh     -csh
                    rn

See I just want to copy the information that has changed.  Thanx in
advance.

Just Email the answers.
