Description
Describe and demonstrate the bug
The table-making functions in Unison.Util.Pretty
, such as column2Header
and column3Header
only support auto-breaking of content in the last column. Content in other columns stretches out the column to fit, leading to potentially very long lines.
Screenshots
I don't have an easy to use reproduction right now, which may be best done with unit tests covering the table-making functions. But from working on a new alternative output for the names
command (see #5521), when I tried putting names in the first column, I observed this behaviour:
scratch/main> names max
'max':
Hash Kind Names
a.max, b.max, bar.max, c.max, d.max, e.max, f.max, foo.max, g.max, my.max #u496htu1d7 Term
builtin.Float.max ##Float.max Term
Another odd issue I encountered is that with many names, the output gets paged through less
and everything ends up in one column. TODO: Add example.
Environment (please complete the following information):
- release/0.5.32-21-gdce127d97 (built on 2025-01-18)
- Windows 11, Intel CPU
