Hmmm, while we are at reformatting: What about merging all extra-information for a given tag, without outputting the tag-name again? As example, instead of this: |binary | | * W patch-system-but-direct-changes-in-diff | config.guess | * W patch-system-but-direct-changes-in-diff | config.sub ... we could display this: |binary | | * W patch-system-but-direct-changes-in-diff | config.guess | config.sub I don't see how displaying the tag name more than once would help. This would require some postprocessing of the results, though, but shouldn't be too hard. Marc -- BOFH #432: Borg nanites have infested the server
