The new format uses extra spacing on columns where it isn't needed --
but the extra space isn't enough to handle the 1 file that was quoted
(needs 5 extra columns). Where does it get '3' (and why doesn't it use
2?)?
Here are 32 files:
ls
aaaaaaa bbbbbbb ccccccc ddddddd eeeeeee fffffff ggggggg
hhhhhhh
aaaaaaa0 bbbbbbb0 ccccccc0 ddddddd0 eeeeeee0 fffffff0 ggggggg0
hhhhhhh0
aaaaaaa1 bbbbbbb1 ccccccc1 ddddddd1 eeeeeee1 fffffff1 ggggggg1
hhhhhhh1
aaaaaaa2 bbbbbbb2 ccccccc2 ddddddd2 eeeeeee2 fffffff2 ggggggg2
hhhhhhh2
# ^^ -- 2 chars separate
mv aaaaaaa \"aaaa\'\" #same number of characters
ls
'"aaaa'\''"' bbbbbbb0 ccccccc1 ddddddd2 fffffff ggggggg0
hhhhhhh1
aaaaaaa0 bbbbbbb1 ccccccc2 eeeeeee fffffff0 ggggggg1
hhhhhhh2
aaaaaaa1 bbbbbbb2 ddddddd eeeeeee0 fffffff1 ggggggg2
aaaaaaa2 ccccccc ddddddd0 eeeeeee1 fffffff2 hhhhhhh
bbbbbbb ccccccc0 ddddddd1 eeeeeee2 ggggggg hhhhhhh0
^^^ - now using minimum of 3 spaces between columns
