nice, i like simple modules. but wouldn't it be easier to alter the look of
the table borders if all elements where in one hash instead of multiple
scalars? is there a method in planing by which i can alter these elements?

i have also an addition to your wishlist. it would be handy if one could
change the alignment of a column from left to right, that would make lists of
numbers with different amounts of digits more readable.
