This package allows to generate and display ascii tables in the terminal, f.e.:

- Declarative style. Have to write more code, and hell with it.
- Styling. With 7 predefined styles: MySql-like (default), compact, compact lite, compact classic, markdown, rounded and unicode. And you can change it.
- Header and footer. Separated from table body.
- Multiline cells support. See _example/main.go/_example/04-multiline/main.go for example.
- Cell content alignment. Left, right or center.
- Row spanning. By analogy with the way it is done in HTML. See
Cell.Spanattribute description. - Fast! Really fast, see _example/main.go/_example/03-benchmarks-with-others.

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/alexeyco/simpletable/_example/01-styles-demo $ go run main.go More examples: For more examples see _example directory:
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/alexeyco/simpletable/_example $ ls -F | grep / 01-styles-demo/ 02-ugly-span/ 03-benchmarks-with-others/ 04-multiline/ There is 6 styles available. To view them, run _example/main.go/01-styles-demo/main.go:
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/alexeyco/simpletable/_example/01-styles-demo $ go run main.go You can set cell content alignment:
c := &simpletable.Cell{ // or simpletable.AlignLeft (default), or simpletable.AlignCenter Align: simpletable.AlignRight, Content: "Subtotal", }By analogy with HTML:
c := &simpletable.Cell{ Span: 2, // Default: 1 Content: "Subtotal", }Note: by default Span is 1. If you try to set it to 0, the value will still be 1.
