print bold inside the code block
Dec 5, 2020 at 0:31 comment added Thomas Dickey It only works in certain limited cases such as OP's question. In particular, if you exercise colors, you'll notice that it doesn't work.

Dec 4, 2020 at 21:45 comment added Thomas Dickey The util-linux code doesn't handle escape sequences for colors, making "works well for me" dubious.
Dec 4, 2020 at 20:55 comment added jesse_b @ArkadiuszDrabczyk: I would prefer not to, this is going to be used on both macos and ubuntu docker containers so ultimately I would rather just remove the colors than require additional tools to be installed but I ideally I would like to get it working.
Dec 4, 2020 at 20:52 comment added Arkadiusz Drabczyk Indeed, Ubuntu uses BSD implementation bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/1705437. It seems quite weird to me, we have util-linux implementation on Slackware. Can't you just install column from util-linux?

Dec 4, 2020 at 20:44 comment added Arkadiusz Drabczyk There used to be a very similar question somewhere at SE a few months ago. Anyway, the answer is the same: it works well for me with column from util-linux 2.36. What implementation of column are you using?
