v2.1.0

This release removes the dependency on fatih/color. The text/color.go file now implements a coloring logic that makes more sense for use in cases like colored tables within colored tables.

This does change table.Style.Color in a backward-incompatible way. AutoIndexColumn and FirstColumn are now logically collapsed into a single IndexColumn variable inside table.Style.Color.

v2.0.0

This release changes Table in a backward-incompatible way (table.Style changes a lot) and hence the Major version bump.

• table.Style is not a flat struct anymore; and provides a lot more configuration options
• TableWriter exposes a few more interfaces to set Alignment/VAlignment for the Header/Footer
• TableWriter now supports rendering "colored" tables/content within "colored" tables
• Colored-text within cells align and wrap without any issues
• Other minor bug-fixes and code cleanup
