  # Text::Table::List
  
  ## Introduction
  
  A library to build simple text-based tables for use on a command line
  interface. We're using Unicode box drawing characters by default, so please
  ensure your terminal supports them. If not, never fear, you can use the
  Text::Table::List::ASCII varient which uses standard ASCII characters, or
  define your own set of characters entirely.
  
  ## Usage
  
  Currently we only support a very minimal table-like structure, here is one
  example:
  
  ```
  my $t1 = Text::Table::List.new(:length(40)).start;
  $t1.label("A Test Table");
  $t1.line;
  $t1.field("Hello:", "World");
  $t1.field("Goodbye:", "Universe");
  $t1.line;
  $t1.label("And now for some numbers.");
  $t1.blank;
  $t1.field("Pi:", pi.base(16));
  $t1.field("The Answer:", 42);
  $t1.field("Nonsense:", "31.34892");
  
  ```
  
  The above would output something that looks like:
  
  ```
  
    ╔══════════════════════════════════════╗
    ║ A Test Table                         ║
    ╟──────────────────────────────────────╢
    ║ Hello:                         World ║
    ║ Goodbye:                    Universe ║
    ╟──────────────────────────────────────╢
    ║ And now for some numbers.            ║
    ║                                      ║
    ║ Pi:                         3.243F6A ║
    ║ The Answer:                       42 ║
    ║ Nonsense:                   31.34892 ║
    ╚══════════════════════════════════════╝
  
  
  ```
  
  You can also pass multiple named paramters to the field() method and each
  one will be used as a name/value pair.
  
  For more, see the tests and examples, in the 't' and 'example' folders
  respectively.
  
  ## Future
  
  This module is pretty simple, and supports only a very small subset of
  the functionality expected from a table. The most obvious is that it does
  not support any form of real columns. It has separator lines, blank lines,
  labels and fields (which consist of a name and a value.) That's it.
  
  So, for a future project, I'd like to build another Text::Table::\* module
  that allows you to build text-based tables with full column support.
  
  It will be it's own project, as I want to keep this one as simple as possible.
