As you know, multicolumn support in PrettyTables.jl is a feature I've wanted for a while.
This PR is to add that support for the
:latex
backend. The reason to add multicolumn support to the latex backend, as opposed to html or plain text, is because of Latex's useful\multicol
command. So we don't have to worry about whitespace at all.To be honest, my plan for this PR is to get a working prototype together, add tests, and then pass it off to you to for final organization into the total
pretty_table
pipeline.This is a minimal start for now. I will ping you when I have something you should actually review.
