Re: Table column width in pipe tables

[John MACFARLANE <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

If you're targeting HTML, you could just use CSS.
If all the tables in your document should have the same
column widths, just set a fixed width for td.

If you want this to affect only some tables, you could
wrap these tables in a div (assuming you're using the
markdown_in_html_blocks or native_divs extension).

Or, use pandoc multiline tables.
