Tables Style

By default Texts stores tables in “pipe” style which is recognised by many Markdown processors and looks like this.

| One   | Two  |
|-------|------|
| Three | Four |
| Five  | Six  |

Previous versions of Texts used “grid” style which looks like this.

+-------+------+
| One   | Two  |
+-------+------+
| Three | Four |
+-------+------+
| Five  | Six  |
+-------+------+
