Aligning text with tabwriter

In certain cases, the output (usually data output) is done via tabbed text, which is formatted in well-arranged cells. This format could be achieved with the text/tabwriter package. The package provides the Writer filter, which transforms the text with the tab characters into properly formatted output text.

How to do it...

1. Open the console and create the folder chapter02/recipe05.
2. Navigate to the directory.
3. Create the tabwriter.go file with the following content:

        package main

        import (
          "fmt"
          "os"
          "text/tabwriter"
        )

        func main() {

          w := tabwriter.NewWriter(os.Stdout, 15, 0, 1, ' ',
           ...
