If no FILES are specified, STDIN is read. If a tool prints the following output, DATABASE TABLE ROWS foo bar 100 long_db_name table 1 another long_name 500 then pt-align reprints the output as, DATABASE TABLE ROWS foo bar 100 long_db_name table 1 another long_name 500 =head1 RISKS The following section is included to inform users about the potential risks, whether known or unknown, of using this tool. The two main categories of risks are those created by the nature of the tool (e.g. read-only tools vs. read-write tools) and those created by bugs. pt-align is a read-only tool. It should be very low-risk. At the time of this release, we know of no bugs that could cause serious harm to users. The authoritative source for updated information is always the online issue tracking system. Issues that affect this tool will be marked as such. You can see a list of such issues at the following URL: L. See also L<"BUGS"> for more information on filing bugs and getting help. =head1 DESCRIPTION pt-align reads lines and splits them into words. It counts how many words each line has, and if there is one number that predominates, it assumes this is the number of words in each line. Then it discards all lines that don't have that many words, and looks at the 2nd line that does. It assumes this is the first non-header line. Based on whether each word looks numeric or not, it decides on column alignment. Finally, it goes through and decides how wide each column should be, and then prints them out. This is useful for things like aligning the output of vmstat or iostat so it is easier to read. =head1 OPTIONS This tool does not have any command-line options. =head1 ENVIRONMENT This tool does not use any environment variables. =head1 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS You need Perl, and some core packages that ought to be installed in any reasonably new version of Perl. =head1 BUGS For a list of known bugs, see L. Please report bugs at L. Include the following information in your bug report: =over =item * Complete command-line used to run the tool =item * Tool L<"--version"> =item * MySQL version of all servers involved =item * Output from the tool including STDERR =item * Input files (log/dump/config files, etc.) =back If possible, include debugging output by running the tool with C; see L<"ENVIRONMENT">. =head1 DOWNLOADING Visit L to download the latest release of Percona Toolkit.

Percona Toolkit was forked from two projects in June, 2011: Maatkit and Aspersa. Those projects were created by Baron Schwartz and developed primarily by him and Daniel Nichter, both of whom are employed by Percona.
