Actually the example should be
(printf "PERM LINKS OWNER GROUP SIZE MONTH DAY " ; \
printf "HH:MM/YEAR NAME\n" ; \
TIME_STYLE=locale ls -l | sed 1d) | column -t
To avoid messing up if TIME_STYLE has been set otherwise in the
environment. In fact
{ printf "PERM LINKS OWNER GROUP SIZE MONTH DAY "; \
printf "HH:MM/YEAR NAME\n"; \
TIME_STYLE=locale ls -l | sed 1d;} | column -t
would do. Even removing the "; \" would work.
