Odd rendering of table

[mathomp4]

All,

First let me say I do love glow. Just learned about it recently and it's one less reason I don't need to spawn a browser when editing Markdown (which I'm still learning).

However, I noticed that for some reason a table of mine is rendering...oddly. And I don't know why. The file in question is this README.md. When I run it through glow, the entries for three of the rows have odd/different justification:

I tried looking in vim with :set list on, but I don't see any odd characters in those rows. Any ideas on what I might have done?

It identifies 2.6, 2.20 and 1.16 as valid numbers, whereas all the other entries are considered strings. We will have to fix the table alignment.

To elaborate on @muesli’s comment, numbers align right by default, the same way they would in a spreadsheet. This is a great example of why that isn't always ideal!

[mathomp4]

Ohhh. I see it. The others are all two-dot semver versions or just plain ol' strings. It's not like it hurts anything, but it just struck me as odd. 😄

#87 Hello there, great package here.

Is there an ETA for fixing this? I could help if that's something you'd like to see fix soon. I know I would :-)

[muesli]

I'm afraid I still haven't looked into it, so no ETA at this point. Help is always appreciated though!

[muesli]

To elaborate a bit more: currently we let the table renderer automatically detect column alignments, which is probably causing this issue. I think we should try to tackle this along with #65 and stick to a fixed alignment as specified in the markdown's table header.

Sounds great. Yes a fixed alignment would fix that. Later it could be improved with adding support to different alignments but for now, sticking with a consistent alignment, whatever it is, would do the trick.
