 <div class="block">An <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/Appendable.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in java.lang" class="externalLink"><code>Appendable</code></a> which formats the text as a table suitable for displaying in devices using
  a monospaced font. Columns are separated by tabulations (<code>'\t'</code>) and rows are separated by
  <a href="../util/Characters.html#isLineOrParagraphSeparator(int)">line or paragraph separators</a>.
  The content of every table cells are stored in memory until the <a href="#flush()"><code>flush()</code></a> method is invoked.
  When invoked, <code>flush()</code> copies the cell contents to the <a href="#out">underlying stream
  or buffer</a> while replacing tabulations by some amount of spaces and drawing borders.
  The exact number of spaces is computed from the cell widths.

  <p>For example, the following code:</p>

  <blockquote><pre>TableAppender table = <font color="green">new</font> <b>TableAppender</b>(System.out);
 table.<b>nextLine</b>(<font color="orangered">'═'</font>);
 table.<b>append</b>(<font color="orangered">"English\tFrench\tr.e.d.\n"</font>);
 table.<b>nextLine</b>(<font color="orangered">'-'</font>);
 table.<b>append</b>(<font color="orangered">"Mercury\tMercure\t0.382\n"</font>)
      .<b>append</b>(<font color="orangered">"Venus\tVénus\t0.949\n"</font>)
      .<b>append</b>(<font color="orangered">"Earth\tTerre\t1.00\n"</font>)
      .<b>append</b>(<font color="orangered">"Mars\tMars\t0.532\n"</font>);
 table.<b>nextLine</b>(<font color="orangered">'═'</font>);
 table.<b>flush</b>();</pre></blockquote>

  produces the following output:

  <blockquote><pre>╔═════════╤═════════╤════════╗
 ║ English │ French  │ r.e.d. ║
 ╟─────────┼─────────┼────────╢
