Hi Szymon

I found a small bug - it doesn't escape "|" well

postgres=# select * from mytab ;
    a     | numeric_b |     c     
----------+-----------+------------

Next, I tested it with asciidoc and asciidoctor and I have a problem with asciidoctor - it doesn't respect aligning .. so numbers are aligned to left instead to right.

When you use a option "header" then a formatting "+++xxxx++++" is useless.

Hi Pavel,

thanks for the remarks. I've attached another version of the pach. It works a little better now, including escaping | and asciidoctor alignment support.

thanks,

Szymon
