Brad Schoening commented on CASSANDRA-19150: -------------------------------------------- [~arkn98] in reviewing your questions, I came across [PEP 3101|https://peps.python.org/pep-3101/#standard-format-specifiers] which introduces new alignment specifiers: * '<' - Forces the field to be left-aligned within the available space (This is the default.) * '>' - Forces the field to be right-aligned within the available space. when I ran this test it seems to default to right align numbers and left align text. {code:java} >>>> for i in (1,'x',0.0): print("{0:5}".format(i)) 1 x 0.0 {code} > Align values in rows in CQLSH right for numbers, left for text > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-19150 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-19150 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: CQL/Interpreter > Reporter: Stefan Miklosovic > Assignee: Arun Ganesh > Priority: Low > Fix For: 5.x > > Attachments: Screenshot 2023-12-04 at 00.38.16.png, Screenshot > 2023-12-09 at 16.58.25.png, signature.asc, test_output.txt, > test_output_old.txt > > Time Spent: 20m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > *Updated* Jan 17 2024 after dev discussion > Change CQLSH to left-align text while continue to right-align numbers.
