Description (last modified by bipolar)

On beta4 df gives me:

> df

While after hrev57190 gives:

Notice the extra line in the middle containing extra spaces (" "), and the right-alignment of "Device" data, if they are short enough.

after applying this small patch:

I get:

Which looks a bit better, albeit it doesn't solves the issue when device names are longer than 24 chars.

If we don't care for the 80 columns limit on the "table headers", I guess we should find out the longest device name, and use that to calculate/adjust the columns widths.

But would take more effort than my simple patch :-P

(Edit: can someone edit my "niglies" typo in the title?)
