Description

Tables in reStructuredText can be quite annoying to produce; a very comfortable solution is a Sphinx plugin, that converts lists to tables.

Example of it being used: https://github.com/opensocdebug/osd-doc/blob/master/src/02_spec/03_dataformats.rst#L47

Extension: https://github.com/opensocdebug/osd-doc/blob/master/sphinx/rstFlatTable.py
Config: https://github.com/opensocdebug/osd-doc/blob/master/src/conf.py#L33
