This is looking pretty neat.  I played around with it a bit.  There are
a couple of edge cases that you need to address, I think.

Thanks, original code is very synoptical and and well prepared for adding new formats.

 

- Does not support \x

I know, i dnot`t know, if \x make sense in this case. I will look, how it is done in other formats like html. I think, that it should work in sense, that table generated to rst should give similar output after processing like output of html format.

 

- When \pset format is rst, then \pset linestyle also shows up as
  "rst".  That is wrong.  Same for markdown.

I will look on this.

 

- Broken output in tuples_only (\t) mode. (rst and markdown)

Similar to \x, im not certain, what it should return. I will look, what returns html format. Or i can use it in markdown for nice vs expanded format.

 

- rst: Do something about \pset title; the way it currently shows up
  appears to be invalid; could use ".. table:: title" directive

OK, it shouldn`t be problem alter this.

 

- markdown: Extra blank line between table and footer.

It is because markdown needs empty line after table, if is row count presented.

 

- markdown: We should document or comment somewhere exactly which of the
  various markdown table formats this is supposed to produce.  (Pandoc
  pipe_tables?)

I use format that was similar to aligned format and ascii linestyle, because it allows me to use existing features. I should look over more table styles in markdown.

 

- markdown: Table title needs to be after the table, like

    Table: title

I will change this.

 

- markdown: Needs to escape | characters in cell contents.  (Not
  needed for rst.)  More escaping might be needed.

This can be problem because of aligning, i will look on this, this same problem as replace newline with </br> for markdown.

Have Nice day

Jan
