What is it

Easily draw tables in terminal/console applications from a list of lists of strings. Supports multi-line rows.

Tested on Python 3.8+

This is a fork of the terminaltables project. Which is archived and unmaintained. This library is in a new namespace but should otherwise be a drop in replacement. Maintaining goals consist of maintaining ecosystem compatibility, type annotations and responding to community pull requests.

To Upgrade

Replace all instances of terminaltables with terminaltables3 in your code. If other libraries depend on terminaltables in your venv they will not conflict because it is a new namespace.

As of right now, the documentation as the robpol86 version.

    ["row1 column1", "row1 column2"],
    ["row2 column1", "row2 column2"],
    ["row3 column1", "row3 column2"],
]
table = AsciiTable(table_data)
print
table.table

+--------------+--------------+
| Heading1     | Heading2     |
