 Actually, that demo code was a mess.  I've attached an updated version
 that is much ''cleaner''.

 The new version shows that the only change required is the introduction of
 the constructor (or we could have a mutating method), and a one-line
 change to the trunk code where it calculates the column width.

 What is the output?

 My bad, sorry.  This doesn't occur with the update, hopefully ;-).
