in reply to About Tabbed Printing

And what do you think about Text::Table (http://search.cpan.org/~anno/Text-Table-1.107/lib/Text/Table.pm)?
I like very much the ``perl old-school technique'' showed by robin, but using this module is even more simple ^_^
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use Text::Table; my @aoa = ( [qw (GAL_up800.fasta 6 800 4.8)], [qw (hm01g.fasta 18 2008 36.144)], [qw (hm02r.fasta 9 1000 9)], [qw (train_muscle.fasta 7 50 0.35 )], ); my $tb = Text::Table->new(); $tb->load(@aoa); print $tb;
You create the object, load your table and print its out, the Text::Table will format and align the elements on the table for you ...

Cool isn't it?
