#6

hi. sorry for the delay, i'm going through the backlog of patches now. it seems the code has now changed enough that this patch no longer seems to fix the attached test. if you wouldn't mind fixing it up, i would be happy to merge. keep in mind that a bunch of the other tests are also now broken (i am in the process of fixing them)

This is a pretty easy fix now: in lib/terminal-table/table.rb

    def number_of_columns
      if rows.empty?
        raise Error, 'your table needs some rows'
      else
        rows.first.size
      end
    end

Just replace rows.first.size with

rows.map { |r| r.size }.max

This "searches" the whole table for the maximum number of columns.
