The tutorial on the Wiki is out of date. Atleast:

        x.set_field_align("City name", "l")

should be:

        x.align["City name"] = 'l'

There may be others too.

Cheers!

The padding attribute also.

Just noticed the tutorial06 page.

Perhaps rename 'tutorial' to 'tutorial-old' so that others dont make the same 
mistake.

Cheers

Also, the new tutorial mentions a printt() method, which does not appear to 
exist in the newest release (0.6).

You're right, the tutorial page is looking pretty sad these days.  The plan was 
(or still is, I guess), to get the 'tutorial' page fully up to scratch and then 
delete the 'tutorial06' page so there's no confusion, but I've  been lazy about 
it.  I'll try to get the 'tutorial' page up to date in the near future.  Thanks 
very much for pointing out specific shortcomings, that will make it a quicker 
and easier task!

I have just extensively updated the Tutorial page after releasing PrettyTable 
0.7, and completely deleted the old Tutorial06 page to make future confusion 
impossible.  The new Tutorial page *should* be free of all references to old 
<=0.5 syntax.
