## Historique du projet et usages

align is a small Unix-style text filter by Stephen B. Kinzler for vertically aligning columns in separated text, distributed with the companion width utility.

### Historique du projet

The official page dates align to the 2000-2001 copyright period and the bundled width tool to 1993-2001. The page itself is dated December 2001 and advertises align 1.7.5 as a downloadable tarball rather than a public source-control repository.

The implementation is presented as installable Perl scripts: users can put align and width directly on PATH or use the supplied Makefile.

### Historique d'adoption

The input package-manager facts show align remains packaged by Homebrew and Nix, but the official project page does not document wider adoption beyond its Unix filter audience.

### Modes d'utilisation

Typical use is in pipelines over logs or tables. With whitespace-separated columns, align can infer separators and print aligned output; options can control input separators, output joiners, and left, right, center, numeric, or zero-padded numeric alignment. The companion width utility reports line widths and longest lines.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

align is the kind of small, durable command-line filter package managers preserve because it composes with pipes and solves a narrow formatting job without a larger table-processing dependency.

### Chronologie

- 1993: width companion utility copyright period begins.
- 2000-2001: align copyright period.
- 2001: Official page dated December 2001 advertises align 1.7.5.
