Read the man page:
-w, --equal-width
equalize width by padding with leading zeroes
It says it will pad with leading zeroes. Why are you expecting it to pad
with trailing zeroes? Looks like a bug in 5.94 as it is doing more than
the spec says it must.
Use this command:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ seq -f %.2f 0 0.25 1
0.00
0.25
0.50
0.75
1.00
