module Text.Html.BlockTable (

-- Datatypes:

      BlockTable,             -- abstract

-- Contruction Functions: 

      single,
      above,
      beside,

-- Investigation Functions: 

      getMatrix,
      showsTable,
      showTable,

import Prelude

infixr 4 `beside`
infixr 3 `above`

-- These combinators can be used to build formated 2D tables.
-- The specific target useage is for HTML table generation.

{-
   Examples of use:

  	> table1 :: BlockTable String
  	> table1 = single "Hello"	+-----+
					|Hello|
	  This is a 1x1 cell		+-----+
	  Note: single has type
	 
		single :: a -> BlockTable a
	
	  So the cells can contain anything.
	
	> table2 :: BlockTable String
	> table2 = single "World"	+-----+
					|World|
					+-----+

	> table3 :: BlockTable String
	> table3 = table1 %-% table2	+-----%-----+
					|Hello%World|
	 % is used to indicate		+-----%-----+
	 the join edge between
	 the two Tables.  

	> table4 :: BlockTable String
	> table4 = table3 %/% table2	+-----+-----+
					|Hello|World|
	  Notice the padding on the	%%%%%%%%%%%%%
	  smaller (bottom) cell to	|World      |
	  force the table to be a	+-----------+
	  rectangle.

	> table5 :: BlockTable String
	> table5 = table1 %-% table4	+-----%-----+-----+
					|Hello%Hello|World|
	  Notice the padding on the	|     %-----+-----+
	  leftmost cell, again to	|     %World      |
	  force the table to be a	+-----%-----------+
	  rectangle.
 
   Now the table can be rendered with processTable, for example:
	Main> processTable table5
	[[("Hello",(1,2)),
	  ("Hello",(1,1)),
	  ("World",(1,1))],
	 [("World",(2,1))]] :: [[([Char],(Int,Int))]]
	Main>
