I don't mean adjusting the columns. you can see the package name is
cut, the words after libhtml-tree-p is missing, so I just want to
output the name & description which are needed, other information like
version isn't needed, so how to just output the package name &
description?
$ dpkg -l 'libhtml*'
||/ Name Version Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
un libhtml-format <none> (no description available)
ii libhtml-parser 3.55-1 A collection of modules that parse HTML text
ii libhtml-protot 1.47-1 Generate HTML and Javascript for the Prototy
ii libhtml-scrubb 0.08-3 Perl extension for scrubbing/sanitizing html
ii libhtml-tagset 3.10-2 Data tables pertaining to HTML
ii libhtml-tree-p 3.19.01-2 represent and create HTML syntax trees
ii libhtml-widget 1.08-1 HTML Widget And Validation Framework

I don't know what the proper thing to do is, but I always redirect the
output to a file then view it.
dpkg -l some-patter > op.txt
