---------------------------------
Thanks for your interest, just to take into account that the method: splitWrappedLinesInToList wouldn't be necessary if the class WordUtils could provide a new split method that instead of returing a String with the splitted text just returns an Array/List with the splitted lines.

-----------------------------------------
I never commented on this at the time. I personally think this is out of scope for [lang]. It has the potential to expand in any number of directions, and has no simple correct implementation.

Gary Gregory commented on LANG-284:
-----------------------------------
I think we are going towards a whole new .table package. I like the idea of a table model with an XML and HTML writer classes on the side. TableModel, XmlTableWriter, HtmlTableWriter. As soon as you say HTML, I am thinking that XML is enough since I can just apply an XSLT later. Opening the door to colors, fonts, borders, etc seems like a big job. You'd also might want a TableColumn class to hold name, data type, etc.

I agree with Stephen [http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-284#action_12461421], this sounds complicated enough and would need enough parameters and customizable features to make it its own component.

Quick braindump - would be cool to be able to create a Table object and then to print that to multiple formats. Text and HTML being two obvious ones. The current code doesn't split that - though I've only glanced at the unit test so far.

Dear Henri,
About your comment, that is why I have provided two methods, the method that returns String[][] drawFixedColumnLengthTable() contains the body of matrix, without any adornament, so you can put into any different format (html, xml, etc).
Regards,
David
