So two cells next to each other would look like this: | | | | -|------------| |-------------|- | | | | one right trimmed and one left trimmed rule. this would be the untrimmed variant | | | | -|-----------------------------|- | | | | see the file booktabs.pdf (that describes a LaTeX package) on page two.
