You can format HELP reports using the formatting commands available for the API from which you make a HELP request.

Unless otherwise noted for a specific HELP statement type, report fields follow a standard format consistent with the field data type. For example, UDT Name VARCHAR(61) fields are formatted as X(61).

For example, this BTEQ input returns session information in the format demonstrated by the following report.
