Added support for text alignment commands in the output template

WARNING: this patch breaks old configuration files.
- removed align configuration option
- added alignSep configuration option, a 2 character string: the text
  before the first character will be align to left, the text in
  between the 2 characters will be centered, and the text after the
  second character will be align to the right. For instance:
  with alignSep
