Proposed multi-line output for netstat
======================================
Current Layout
--------------
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State
tcp6 0 0 2001:67c:26f4:64::55736 2001:67c:26f4:64::7:993 ESTABLISHED
Note: The current layout seems to cut off addresses.
Proposal #1 (RFC-compliant, one line, 80+ chars)
------------------------------------------------
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State
tcp6 0 0 [2001:67c:26f4:64:1234:5789:abcd:abcd]:55736 [2001:67c:26f4:64:1234:5678:abcd:ab70]:993 ESTABLISHED
Note: It breaks layout even if we only use low-byte interface identifier.
80+ chars still.
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State
tcp6 0 0 [2001:67c:26f4:64::79]:55736 [2001:67c:26f4:64::70]:993 ESTABLISHED
Proposal #2 (RFC-compliant, multi-line, <80 chars)
--------------------------------------------------
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q State
tcp6 0 0 ESTABLISHED
Local Address [2001:67c:26f4:64:1234:5678:abcd:abcd]:55736
