org-pretty-table

Draw pretty unicode tables in org-mode and orgtbl-mode.

Very experimental.

Installation

This package is not yet distributed through package archives and you have to install it manually.

1. Download the org-pretty-table.el file into some folder in your hard drive (for example ~/.emacs.d/site-lisp).

2. Put the following code into your ~/.emacs.d/init.el or ~/.emacs file:

(progn
  (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/site-lisp")
  (require 'org-pretty-table)
  (add-hook 'org-mode-hook (lambda () (org-pretty-table-mode))))

3. Evaluate the progn block by putting the point on the progn and calling C-M-x (M-x eval-defun). If unsure, you can also simply restart Emacs.

4. Open an org-mode file. Calling M-: org-pretty-table-mode RET should print 1 in the minibuffer. You're done!
