(...) "man services" will give you additional information about the format of that file. Both, spaces and tabs can be used as field separators. sm01@stt008:~$ grep -e sgi -e vbox /etc/services sgi-cmsd 17001/udp # Cluster membership services daemon sgi-crsd 17002/udp sgi-gcd 17003/udp # SGI Group membership daemon sgi-cad 17004/tcp # Cluster Admin daemon vboxd 20012/tcp # voice box system vboxd 20012/udp Beyond that, like in the above example, are just aesthetic issues, I'd say (the first line uses two tabs instead three).
