You'll probably need to install the bash package to get that command. Remember to press y when it asks about replacing /bin/sh or modify the script to use #!/bin/bash instead of #!/bin/sh - I use the latter way to get bash scripts to work while keeping ash as my shell.

nah, doesn't work already have bash installed and has replaced sh. column is a exe i think and is present on my debian machine, just not available on slitaz, even coreutils doesn't have it. is there any other package which has all these other linux command utilities?

Hmmm, seems to be provided by bsdmaintools and not coreutils or bash. That means he's using BSD related tools rather than default Linux ones. Oh well, here's the SliTaz package for it: http://brenton.nom.za/downloads/bsdmainutils-8.0.13.tazpkg

thanks trixar, thanks a lot, can you tell me how you found out about bsdmaintools, no google search led me to that.

I used debian package search. I just searched the contents for something ending in column.
