Harmonize .tsv examples (and their rendering) #644
Comments
IMHO something like this would be nice: 👇 this is what you could find in the source of the spec (md)
Which would then be turned to a standard table in html and pdf:
that way we'd have the example nicely in source tsv (in the raw MD file) ... and in nice html/pdf tables for the part that people actually read. Now the cherry on top for me would be if there was some html/css magic (for web version only) that if hovering over the table, there'd be a "copy button" that would copy the tsv source (not the rendered table). But that would not be necessary as a first step IMHO. |
Inspired by discussion in #619 I came to realization that there is no consistency ATM: .tsv "Text" examples come both in
proper TSV form
I.e. ideally it should be a job of remake (some plugin) to do use TABS (ATM they are replaced by spaces by remake I guess), and just use HTML/CSS to provide nice visual alignment into the table (should be possible) while having TAB as the actual character so content could be copy pasted. Even though it is unlikely the actual entries would be copy pasted, I would expect some readers copy-paste headers (which also should be tab-delimited). Could even use (although not really needed and overkill) smth like https://www.datatables.net/, where copy pasting a row from that fancy table does produce tab delimited entries:
