Hi Ryan,

It does this because it’s prepared to handle showing the version as well. i.e., 
in port echo installed, for instance.

The special cases could be changed to use a minimal amount of white space, I 
suppose, depending on what fields are being displayed.

Note, too, that passing the quiet flag prints only the port name, and no extra 
whitespace.
