[Squirrel-sql-develop] Improving Result as Text tab

[Alarcón V. <vla...@ya...>]

Hi, I wanted to explore the possibility of improving the "Result as Text" tab. IMHO as it is now its format is lacking quite a bit. A few years back I developed a library here at source forge called "Java Text Table Formatter" (https://sourceforge.net/projects/texttablefmt/) that could be put to good use.

For example, the query:

  select id, name, type from account;
  
Nowadays shows something like:

id           name                                                type        
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1234001      CHK1004                                             CHK         
1234004      SAV7018                                             SAV         
1234005      CHK2301                                             CHK         

With the new library, it could show something like:

id       name     type
-------  -------  ----
1234001  CHK1004  CHK
1234004  SAV7018  SAV
1234005  CHK2301  CHK

I don't know how to articulate this change or how to find out if there's interest for it. Is this the right email subscription?

Thanks,
Vlad
