How to format the following text so if the time is, say, 9:00am, it adds an empty space at the beginning? While also aplying this same format to the Second column, AND also the keep text aligned at the end?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Input:
8:00am - 10:00am Working, saw video of people with Cat filter on on video
7:00am - 9:00am Working
9:00am - 11:00am Meeting with people I hate
11:00am - 11:30am Meeting
11:30am - 12:30pm Meeting
12:30pm - 1:00pm Working
2:00pm - 5:00pm Working
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Output:
8:00am - 10:00am ......... Working, saw video of people with Cat filter on on video
7:00am - 9:00am ......... Working
9:00am - 11:00am ......... Meeting with people I hate
11:00am - 11:30am ......... Meeting
11:30am - 12:30pm ......... Meeting
12:30pm - 1:00pm ......... Working
2:00pm - 5:00pm ......... Working
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Example, I enter:
8:00am - 10:00am Working, saw video of people with Cat filter on on video
and output would be:
𝍖8:00am - 10:00am ......... Working, saw video of people with Cat filter on on video
Where 𝍖
is the SPACE character.

Used this script from CCStone:
#!/usr/bin/env perl -0777 -nsw
use v5.12;
use utf8;
s!\A\s+|\s+\Z!!gm; # Remove leading and trailing \v whitespace.
s!^\h+|\h+$!!gm; # Remove leading and trailing \h whitespace.
s!\h+(Working|Meeting)!\t$1!g; # Emplace tab delimiter for . leader.
s!^(.+?)\t!$1.' '.('.' x (20 - length $1)).' '!mge; # Emplace dot leaders.
print; # Print output.
