Usage

There are two basic ways of using this plugin. Select what you want to format and hit Ctrl+Alt+Shift+T or use the same shortcut without selection to format the entire document.

Configuration

{
  // make plugin verbose in debug console
  "verbose": false,

  // scan document to format tables when saving
  "autoformat_on_save": false,

  // spaces between "|" and cell's text
  "margin": 1,

  // additional spaces before/after cell's text (depending on justification)
  "padding": 0,

  // how text should be justified when not specified [LEFT, RIGHT, CENTER]
  "default_justification": "LEFT"
}

Proper formatting

To be recognised properly by the plugin, Markdown tables must not contain white space in the line that separate the table heading from the other table rows.

For example, the following works:

|:------------------|:---------------------|:-----------------|

This example will not work:

|:------------------| ---------------------|:-----------------|
