in reply to splicing time

Are those columns supposed to be tab aligned? They are not aligned using space padding. If tab aligned, where do the tabs go? Perhaps you could use | characters in place of tabs to make it a little clearer?

    well thats a good question! And thats what I tried to look for, tabs or any other special char, using cat -etu "file" I will try |. yes I could accept that the field will be there, but it annoys and I know awk can do it. thank you to both!
