The Reason column requested %R, which prints a reason only for pending and failed jobs and the allocated node list for everything else, so on a running row it just repeated the Node column. %r is the single purpose code. squeue writes None for a job with no reason, so that is decoded as unset and the table shows its usual placeholder.

The Reason column asked
squeuefor%R, which prints a reason only for pending and failed jobs and the allocated node list for every other state, so on a running row it just repeated the Node column. It now asks for%r, the single-purpose code, which also means sorting by the column sorts by the reason.squeuewritesNonefor a job with no reason, so that decodes as unset and the table shows the same-it uses for any other blank cell.Closes #13
