Hello all, I want to produce a table of text output (in the same notebook my code is in). The output consists of many rows of numbers, each row containing the same number of numbers. For example the entire output might consist of 500 rows each having 7 columns. It is important for understanding the output to have well-formatted columns of a constant width regardless of the number of digits in each number (which will be no more than say 9). In the columns the numbers should be right-aligned. "Print" does not seem to have enough control to do this. It's much less flexible than the print statement in C. What I need is something like that. I've been reading the book, sections 2.7, 2.8, etc., and it looks like I will have to write an actual (small) program to do this. I'd appreciate any suggestions or leads to a package where all this is already done. Many thanks. Steve Gray
