Éric Araujo  added the comment:

The method is called from one place only, but the fact that it is its own 
method and has dedicated tests seems to indicate that it was meant as 
standalone piece of functionality.  We can’t be sure of original intent given 
that no method in the class uses the `_` prefix naming convention, but I think 
it’s fine to document the function and so make it officially public now.

[issue46196] documentation for cmd library should include columnize() function

[sharewell]

New submission from sharewell :

Cmd.columnize is an extremely useful function in Python, that can be used in 
many situations. It is part of the Cmd library. Unfortunately, the Cmd 
documentation does not mention it. It should. I only found out about it via 
https://stackoverflow.com/a/59627245

Please add to the documentation: https://docs.python.org/3/library/cmd.html
