        DashTable
        =========
        When it comes to converting html to rst, pandoc_ does an excellent
        job... except for tables. dashtable is designed to fill this gap by
        creating a way to convert html tables into reStructuredText or Markdown.
        
        dashtable also has functions for converting data to reStructuredText
        tables and Markdown tables, as well as methods for generating data from
        these text-tables.
