The FORMAT
subcommand, which must precede the first
TABLE
subcommand, controls formatting for all the output
tables. FORMAT
and all of its settings are optional.
Use MINCOLWIDTH
and MAXCOLWIDTH
to control the minimum
or maximum width of columns in output tables. By default, with
DEFAULT
, column width varies based on content. Otherwise,
specify a number for either or both of these settings. If both are
specified, MAXCOLWIDTH
must be greater than or equal to
MINCOLWIDTH
. The default unit, or with UNITS=POINTS
, is
points (1/72 inch), or specify UNITS=INCHES
to use inches or
UNITS=CM
for centimeters. PSPP does not currently honor any
of these settings.
By default, or with EMPTY=ZERO
, zero values are displayed in
their usual format. Use EMPTY=BLANK
to use an empty cell
instead, or EMPTY="string"
to use the specified string.
By default, missing values are displayed as ‘.’, the same as in
other tables. Specify MISSING="string"
to instead use a
custom string.
