Advanced usage

You can configure the table by constructing SimpleTableConfig and passing it to makeSimpleTable.

putStrLn $ makeSimpleTable simpleTableConfig {
    tableBorders = "+++++++++-|",
    colMinWidths  = [3, 4],
    rowMinHeights = [2],
    padFunction   = simpleTableLeftPad,
    cellPadFunction = simpleTableBottomPad,
    horizontalPadding = 0,
    verticalPadding = 1,
    paddingStr = ".,`"
    } [["a"], ["b", "c"]]
