+// Package tabwriter implements a write filter (tabwriter.Writer) that

+// Filter implementation
+
+// A cell represents a segment of text terminated by tabs or line breaks.
+// The text itself is stored in a separate buffer; cell only describes the
+// segment's size in bytes, its width in runes, and whether it's an htab
+// ('\t') terminated cell.
+//
+type cell struct {
+ size int // cell size in bytes
+ width int // cell width in runes
+ htab bool // true if the cell is terminated by an htab ('\t')
+}
+
+// A Writer is a filter that inserts padding around tab-delimited
+// columns in its input to align them in the output.
+//
+// The Writer treats incoming bytes as UTF-8 encoded text consisting
+// of cells terminated by (horizontal or vertical) tabs or line
+// breaks (newline or formfeed characters). Cells in adjacent lines
+// constitute a column. The Writer inserts padding as needed to
+// make all cells in a column have the same width, effectively
+// aligning the columns. It assumes that all characters have the
+// same width except for tabs for which a tabwidth must be specified.
+// Note that cells are tab-terminated, not tab-separated: trailing
+// non-tab text at the end of a line does not form a column cell.
+//
+// The Writer assumes that all Unicode code points have the same width;
+// this may not be true in some fonts.
+//
+// If DiscardEmptyColumns is set, empty columns that are terminated
+// entirely by vertical (or "soft") tabs are discarded. Columns
+// terminated by horizontal (or "hard") tabs are not affected by
+// this flag.
+//
+// If a Writer is configured to filter HTML, HTML tags and entities
+// are passed through. The widths of tags and entities are
+// assumed to be zero (tags) and one (entities) for formatting purposes.
+//
+// A segment of text may be escaped by bracketing it with Escape
+// characters. The tabwriter passes escaped text segments through
+// unchanged. In particular, it does not interpret any tabs or line
+// breaks within the segment. If the StripEscape flag is set, the
+// Escape characters are stripped from the output; otherwise they
+// are passed through as well. For the purpose of formatting, the
+// width of the escaped text is always computed excluding the Escape
+// characters.
+//
+// The formfeed character ('\f') acts like a newline but it also
+// terminates all columns in the current line (effectively calling
+// Flush). Cells in the next line start new columns. Unless found
+// inside an HTML tag or inside an escaped text segment, formfeed
+// characters appear as newlines in the output.
+//
+// The Writer must buffer input internally, because proper spacing
+// of one line may depend on the cells in future lines. Clients must
+// call Flush when done calling Write.
