This package provides some convenient commands for filling a table, i.e., adjusting the layout of the table so it can fit in n columns.
Commands provided:
- ftable-fill
- Fill the table at point
- ftable-reformat
- Change the style of the table. For example, from
ASCII +--+--+ to Unicode ┌──┬──┐
| | | │ │ │
+--+--+ └──┴──┘
- ftable-edit-cell
- Edit the cell at point
There are some limitations. Currently ftable doesn’t support tables with compound cells (cells that span multiple rows/columns) because they are more complicated to handle. If the need arises in the future (unlikely), I might improve ftable to handle more complex tables. Also, after filling, any manual line-break in a cell is discarded.
