Package: multitail
Version: 6.4.2-3+b1
Severity: normal

I wish that instead of doing this tedious:

  multitail --basename -ts --mergeall --label 'a: ' /tmp/a -ts --label 'b: ' 
/tmp/b

I just do something like this:

  multitail --basenameall --tsall --mergeall /tmp/a /tmp/b

or --labelauto

and it shows the same:

2018/11/08 18:24:25 b: asd
2018/11/08 18:24:25 b: xxx
2018/11/08 18:24:25 b: xxx
2018/11/08 18:24:25 b: xxx
2018/11/08 18:24:25 a: asd
2018/11/08 18:24:25 a: asd
2018/11/08 18:24:25 a: xxx
2018/11/08 18:24:25 a: xxx
2018/11/08 18:24:25 a: xxx
2018/11/08 18:24:25 a: xxx

option to set a width of label, so all labels are same width (either
extended on left or right with spaces, or truncated with only showing
left or right) would also be useful.

Thanks.
