I've checked this and simple tables are working with alignment while grid tables will not. Dan't ask me why. I've not recognized this because I prefer the *simple table* style. ;-)

Never the less even simple tables are easy to parse since they are delimited by blank lines. So while to cursor must be inside a table, Uberwriter must search for blank lines above and below the current line. To be recognized as a simple table, the second line of the found block must consist of dashes and blanks. The colums are separated by two or more blanks.

The only thing I currently don't know is, how to display a (aligned) table with an proportional font. Since the header is responsable for the alignment, the body of the table may could be realised with tabs?
