Re: Unicode UTF-8 table formatting for psql text output

I give it a try. It looks very reasonable. We could argue about the
exact chars to use but that can be changed later.

Did you give expanded output a look? (\x) I find it a bit weird that
the first line shows a single-pixel wide line but the subsequent ones
are thicker.

BTW I think you should also look at multiline fields,

a │ b
━━━┿━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
4 │ some text
: and some more
: and then some
(1 filas)

And wrapped:

alvherre=# select * from foo;
a │ b
━━━┿━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
5 │ En un lugar de la Mancha, de cuyo nombre no quiero acordarme, no ha mucho
; tiempo que vivía un hidalgo
(1 fila)
