Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve
Related to #3487 there was no great way to provide table output like you do for most (or perhaps all) your other commands like gh issue list. You expose a color function and I can use printf to align and pad strings, but what would be really great is a table function.
Proposed solution
The Docker CLI lets you specify a table function that works like this:
docker images --format "table {{.Repository}}\t{{.Tag}}"It would then output something like:
REPOSITORY TAG
azuresecuritykeyvaultcertificatestests latest
dotnet-sdk 5.0-ubuntu-18.04
jupyter/base-notebook latest
This is done via, mostly, https://github.com/docker/cli/blob/daf5f126ad698f34548c21f672450afa5754b7a2/cli/command/formatter/formatter.go. It is effectively like {{range}} but splits on tabs and determines optimal width automatically.
Alternatively, if there was some way to declare the scope of nodes to format as a table automatically, perhaps you could - when specified - format that with survey as you do your own table output.
