PGML Tables
One can make a table inside a PGML within the tags [# #]
Then cells use the tags [. .] and the last cell in a row ends in a *.
A simple table can be made with
BEGIN_PGML [# [. col 1 .] [. col 2 .] [. col 3 .]* [. 1 .] [. 2 .] [. 3 .]* [. [`x`] .] [. [`x^2`] .] [. [`x^3`] .]* #] END_PGML
Would make a table similar to
col 1 | col 2 | col 3 |
1 | 2 | 3 |
x | x2 | x3 |
Notice that other PGML structures can exist inside of table cells. A PGML table uses the niceTables macro to create the table and options can also be included.
The example:
[# [. [`x`] .]{bgcolor => 'yellow'} [. [`x^2`].]*{bgcolor => 'lightblue'} [. [`2`] .] [. [_]{4} .]* #]{align => '|c|c|', horizontalrules => 1}
will generate a table that looks like:
x | x2 |
2 |
Notice that the table-level options should added to the table tags [# #], which include align and horizontalrules. Cell-level options are included on the individual cells.
