Single spaced output option #327

Closed trinker closed 5 years ago

trinker commented 5 years ago

pander returns its output as a double spaced table. When it gets converted to whatever format (e.g., html) this doesn't matter but the plain text is also of interest. Having the ability to remove the double spacing can be useful. COuld this be a feature for options?

I asked this as a Stackoverflow question and want to link the two posts: https://stackoverflow.com/a/53045049/1000343

You mean not having an extra line-break between the lines? That's part of the multiline specs of pandoc. Maybe try with style = 'simple'?

> pander(mtcars[1:5, 1:5], style = 'simple')
