Files that contain a series of floating point numbers that are very tough to read. This script process all the numbers in an original file and create a new file that is much easier to read.
The program gets the original file name (with or without path) from the user, specify's the output file name (with or without path), allow the user to set the field width and set the precision (after decimal point) and allow the user to set how many columns on each line (from 1 to 5). The new file is not created until the input file actually exist, the destination file does not exist (does not overwrite any file) and the field width and precision are specified as well as the number of columns is in the range of 1 to 5
