[Feature request] Table Formatter

[york-xtrem]

Thanks for everything 😊

Nice feature in vscode.

To add onto this:

• tab/shift-tab/enter and table autocomplete: https://atom.io/packages/markdown-table-editor
• pandoc's multiline_tables and grid_table support: https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#other-extensions under Extension: multiline_tables and Extension: grid_tables

Edit: It looks like #811 (markdown-it) has an option for multiline tables: https://github.com/RedBug312/markdown-it-multimd-table

I set the enableMultilineRows option to true but was not able to get that working.

I'm using the following:

First header | Second header
-------------|---------------
List:        | More  \
- over       | data  \
- several    |       \
- lines      |

Please let me know if I should open a new issue for this.

You can use the table formatter from the "File -> Format Table" menu option.

@Snuupy I didn't found the side issue until the release of Boostnote v0.11.8 today. enableMultilineRows feature was added in markdown-it-multimd-table v3.1.0. You might need to upgrade before adding this option:

$ sed -i '/markdown-it-multimd-table/s/2.0.1/3.1.3/' package.json
$ sed -i '/markdown-it-multimd-table/s/))$/), {enableMultilineRows: true})/' browser/lib/markdown.js
$ npm install
$ yarn run run dev-start
