I just pushed an extension called Tabulate to the Friends of I7 repo. It adds a not-for-release ‘tabulate’ command that lets you request a dump of table contents during play (via the showme the contents of phrase.)
"Table of Stats"
Include Tabulate by Zed Lopez.
Lab is a room.
Table of Stats
name x y
"foo" 1 2
"bar" 5 9
Test me with "tabulate table of stats / tabulate stats".
>test me
(Testing.)
>[1] tabulate table of stats
Table of Stats
(row 1) | foo | 1 | 2 |
(row 2) | bar | 5 | 9 |
>[2] tabulate stats
Table of Stats
(row 1) | foo | 1 | 2 |
(row 2) | bar | 5 | 9 |
One night I had remembered there was some provision to do this, and had conflated it with something the ‘showme’ command could do, kind of like the poster of Seeing the contents of a table here. Needing to put the phrase in your code and re-compile when you want the output is a pain, so ta-da, now there really is a command to do it.
