I just ”shell out” to HTML for tables.

  How do you make PDFs? When I’ve used html features I’ve resorted to weird tricks with WebKit but that’s really not great.

      I wish I had that luxury.

        I mean, when I did have to make them I used dvips ... but that was a long time ago. And tables in LaTeX are no joke either.

  HTML tables are hard to write, read, and edit though. If you want to make the document easily readable both as HTML and Markdown (quite useful for a README, I think) then it's not a very good option.

    I agree, I've resorted to writing Perl to generate the tables in some cases.
