EvTable

This is an advanced ASCII table creator. It was inspired
by prettytable but shares no code.

WARNING: UNDER DEVELOPMENT. Evtable does currently NOT support
colour ANSI markers in the table. Non-colour tables should
work fully (so make issues if they don't).


Example usage:

    table = EvTable("Heading1", "Heading2", table=[[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]], border="cells")
    table.add_column("This is long data", "This is even longer data")
    table.add_row("This is a single row")
    print table

Result:

+----------------------+----------+---+--------------------------+
|       Heading1       | Heading2 |   |                          |
+======================+==========+===+==========================+
|           1          |     4    | 7 |     This is long data    |
+----------------------+----------+---+--------------------------+
|           2          |     5    | 8 | This is even longer data |
+----------------------+----------+---+--------------------------+
|           3          |     6    | 9 |                          |
+----------------------+----------+---+--------------------------+
| This is a single row |          |   |                          |
+----------------------+----------+---+--------------------------+

As seen, the table will automatically expand with empty cells to
make the table symmetric.

Tables can be restricted to a given width.

table.reformat(width=50, align="l")

(We could just have added these keywords to the table
creation call) yields the following result:
+-----------+------------+-----------+-----------+
| Heading1  | Heading2   |           |           |
+===========+============+===========+===========+
| 1         | 4          | 7         | This is   |
|           |            |           | long data |
+-----------+------------+-----------+-----------+
|           |            |           | This is   |
| 2         | 5          | 8         | even      |
|           |            |           | longer    |
|           |            |           | data      |
+-----------+------------+-----------+-----------+
| 3         | 6          | 9         |           |
+-----------+------------+-----------+-----------+
| This is a |            |           |           |
|  single   |            |           |           |
| row       |            |           |           |
+-----------+------------+-----------+-----------+

When adding new rows/columns their data can have its
own alignments (left/center/right, top/center/bottom).

If the height is restricted, cells will be restricted
from expanding vertically. This will lead to text
contents being cropped. Each cell can only shrink
to a minimum width and height of 1.


It is intended to be used with ANSIString for supporting
ANSI-coloured string types.

         Args:
            headers for the table

         Keywords:
            table - list of columns (list of lists) for seeding
                    the table. If not given, the table will start
                    out empty
            header - True/False - turn off header being treated
                    as a header (like extra underlining)

            pad_width - how much empty space to pad your cells with
                        (default is 1)
            border - None, or one of
                    "table" - only a border around the whole table
                    "tablecols" - table and column borders
                    "header" - only border under header
                    "cols" - only vertical borders
                    "incols" - vertical borders, no outer edges
                    "rows" - only borders between rows
                    "cells" - border around all cells
            border_width - width of table borders, if border is active.
                          Note that widths wider than 1 may give artifacts in the
                          corners. Default is 1.
            corner_char - character to use in corners when border is
                          active.
            header_line_char - characters to use for underlining
                                    the header row (default is '~')
                                    Requires border to be active.

            width - fixed width of table. If not set, width is
                    set by the total width of each column.
                    This will resize individual columns in
                    the vertical direction to fit.
            height - fixed height of table. Defaults to unset.
                     Width is still given precedence. If
                     height is given, table cells will crop
                     text rather than expand vertically.
            evenwidth - (default True). Used with the width keyword.
                     Adjusts collumns to have as even width as
                     possible. This often looks best also for
                     mixed-length tables.

            See Cell class for further kwargs. These will be passed
            to each cell in the table.
