+# Display Results In Readable Column Format
+
+By default the output of a query or pragma command will be pretty squished and
+unreadable.
+
+```sql
+sqlite> PRAGMA table_info(User);
+0|id|TEXT|1||1
+1|name|TEXT|0||0
+2|email|TEXT|0||0
+3|emailVerified|DATETIME|0||0
+4|image|TEXT|0||0
+```
+
+However, this can be improved by setting the output `mode` to `column`.
+
+```sql
+sqlite> .mode column
+```
+
+With that set, we can run the same command which will now output nicely
+formatted columns with headers.
+
+```sql
+sqlite> PRAGMA table_info(User);
+cid  name           type      notnull  dflt_value  pk
+---  -------------  --------  -------  ----------  --
+0    id             TEXT      1                    1
+1    name           TEXT      0                    0
+2    email          TEXT      0                    0
+3    emailVerified  DATETIME  0                    0
+4    image          TEXT      0                    0
+```
