RedHat has this little utility called chkconfig that helps you manage which services get run at which runlevel on startup. It's pretty handy. Its output format is godawful, however:

Quick, what are you running at runlevel 2? How can I easily pick out information? I can't scan the columns very easily. Besides, if you have a table and your values are boolean, don't make them be "Yes" and "No" or "On" and "Off", but a value and empty space.
So here's how I cleaned it up:
andy@mungo[~]$ /sbin/chkconfig --list | ./cclist
2345 lm_sensors
2345 iptables
2345 network
3 5 ntpd
snmpd
34 rhnsd
345 rpcgssd
34 cups-config-daemon
2345 syslog
5 named
psacct
234 apmd
12345 cpuspeed
345 acpid
345 nifd
345 messagebus
saslauthd
NetworkManager
2345 gpm
mdmpd
2345 crond
2345 dovecot
nfs
345 rpcsvcgssd
nscd
irda
2345 mdmonitor
yum
5 spamassassin
snmptrapd
345 irqbalance
microcode_ctl
345 nfslock
bluetooth
345 haldaemon
5 readahead_early
vncserver
2345 smartd
2345 sshd
winbind
345 atd
diskdump
345 portmap
345 netfs
2345 smb
2345 pcmcia
lisa
345 kudzu
5 readahead
2345 xfs
345 mDNSResponder
345 rpcidmapd
2345 postfix
2345 mailman
ypbind
netdump
2345 anacron
2345 cups
netplugd
345 autofs
So much better. Oh my, look, named is only running if I'm at runlevel 5. I wouldn't have noticed that from the first version.
Simple little code follows. Golf it if you must, but I'm not really interested in how I could make it better unless I'm doing something significantly stupid.
andy@mungo[~]$ more cclist
while (<>) {
if ( /^(\S+)(\s+\d:o(n|ff)){7}/ ) {
chomp;
my @cols = split;
my $service = shift @cols;
for ( @cols ) {
my ( $level, $status ) = split /:/;
print $status eq "on" ? $level : " ";
}
print "\t$service\n";
} else {
print;
}
}
Simpler?

In the past I've always piped the output to get what I want.
% chkconfig --list | sort | grep 3:on
Your way looks a lot more flexible!

Suggestions to make it easier to scan vertically

- A space between the columns
- Using Term::ANSIColor to colour-code the runlevels

I see I wasn't the only one inspired by the 2nd day of the Advent Calendar! ;)

With LC_ALL=fr_FR, it's a lot more horrible, because columns are not even aligned.
See an example:
sound 0:arrêt 1:arrêt 2:marche 3:marche 4:marche 5:marche 6:arrêt
dm 0:arrêt 1:arrêt 2:arrêt 3:arrêt 4:arrêt 5:marche 6:arrêt
kheader 0:arrêt 1:arrêt 2:marche 3:marche 4:arrêt 5:marche 6:arrêt

Whereas this all looks OK in Mandrake? But en_US looks particulary bad? :-)
