Yes, I missed tables myself already. The headings I just put into the current SVN version (see this forum for how it works).


Very nice, thanks! I'm a bit torn as to whether I like the way I have to enter the level by keyboard or whether I'd rather see something like with the smileys (i.e. some "level menu" opens once "H" is pressed). The former is faster, while the latter doesn't require moving between the mouse and the keyboard. But that's just a detail - not really that important.

Tables are a bit harder to implement and will come later. Do you have a proposal for a possible syntax?

Maybe somehting like

heading 1 heading 2 heading 3
data 1 data 2 data 3


this looks a bit like the "pipe" mode from a Wiki

what do you think?

Yup, I remember using that kind of "pipe" structure in Wikis and I actually liked it. I think it's a lot easier to read in the "source" as well - and it reminds me remotely of LaTeX... Wink Also, it doesn't require much to just type it out instead of using buttons to make the cells. Definitely good enough for the simple type of tables I had in mind!
