Re: write_table

Virginie,

Actually, with a little trick, you can make the header left alignment.
Like this example:

 a = (/111, 222, 333, 444/)
 b = (/1.1, 2.2, 3.3/)
 c = (/"a", "b", "c"/)
 d = (/11h, 22h/)
 f = (/11l, 22l, 33l, 44l, 55l, 66l/)

 alist = [/a, b, c, d, f/]

 header = (/"--------------------------------", \
            "This is a file header", \
            "--------------------------------"/)
 footer = (/"--------------------------------", \
            "This is a file footer", \
            "--------------------------------"/)

 hlist = [/header/]
 flist = [/footer/]

 str_write("list.txt", "w", hlist, "%s ")
 str_write("list.txt", "a", alist, "%d%16.2f%s%d%ld")
 str_write("list.txt", "a", flist, "%s ")
Which will produce:
--------------------------------
This is a file header
--------------------------------
111, 1.10,a,11,11
222, 2.20,b,22,22
333, 3.30,c, ,33
444, , , ,44
   , , , ,55
   , , , ,66
--------------------------------
This is a file footer
--------------------------------

The trick is to put an extra space in the header format between 's' and '"'.

Sorry for the confusion.
