I'm looking for a program similar to PASTE that will take two text
files and turn them into one file of two column.  Paste would do it,
except that the alignment of the second column is dependent on the
line width of the first column.  Thus, the program would have to take
a couple of additional inputs specifying how wide to make each file.

Thanks..
