Lines: 13 One of our users is creating files of numeric data (survey results) for input into a statistics package. i.e. fix width columns of numbers. Does any body have some code that will assist with this task? At a minimum it would be helpful to be able bring up a ruler so that it is easy to check column numbers. We have both Unipress and Gnu emacs. Cheers, Russell. -- Russell Fulton, Computer Center, University of Auckland, New Zealand.
