title: Breaking up a input list, into several columns
body: <p>How can I input a list, and have the contents display in multiple columns, say after three items; example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$carlist = "c:\temp\list-of-cars.txt"             # listing 10 cars               
  $num-cols = 4
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Content would be:          </p>
  
  <pre><code>Car1          
  Car2
  ..       
  Car9      
  Car10
  
  $c = $carlist.count/$num-cols                     # some number of columns  
  write-host $carlist (something)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Output would be (based on the number of columns:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Car1          Car4          Car7          Car10                                             
  Car2          Car5          Car8                           
  Car3          Car6          Car9
  </code></pre>
