Guys,I developed a script to help me read the output of pacman -Ss in 2 nicely formatted columns. The output of 'pacman -Ss srchterm' drives me nuts trying to read down the package names and descriptions with all the tab indented and wrapped text -- so I fixed it.

Hi, I'm new to Arch and to the list but wanted to say thanks for posting this up. I've found pacman a great tool for getting what I need installed, but browsing and looking around it was tricky - this script is really useful for that. Thanks, Nigel
