Terminal Table v3.0.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-01-27 // about 4 years ago
    • ๐Ÿ‘Œ Support for (optional) Unicode border styles on tables. In order to support decent looking Unicode borders, different types of intersections get different types of intersection characters. This has the side effect of subtle formatting differences even for the ASCII table border case due to removal of certain intersections near colspans.

    For example, previously the output of a table may be: +------+-----+ | Title | +------+-----+ | Char | Num | +------+-----+ | a | 1 | | b | 2 | | c | 3 | +------+-----+

    ๐Ÿšš And now the + character above the word Title is removed, as it is no longer considered an intersection:

        +------------+
        |   Title    |
        +------+-----+
        | Char | Num |
        +------+-----+
        | a    | 1   |
        | b    | 2   |
        +------+-----+
