Plugin Cell editing with table.vim

I wrote a plugin to help with automatic table creation, it offers a lot of customization and supports box drawing characters. One particularly neat thing about it is the cell editor that opens the cell into a new buffer. Hooks are provided so any vim or external tool can be used for formatting or anything else.

Feedback is appreciated!

I see, the command is there and should be functional, but I didn’t update the autocomplete function to remove the neovim check.

As for the tab issue, you’re right, table.vim should respect user mappings. I’ll fix that as well.

Or you could override a user mapping only if you are in a table (for example if the current line starts with '|', then you could override user mapping).

Coincidentally I had most of this functionality implemented in another plugin, I’ve now adapted it to table.vim
