Small caps
Simple table with small caps. We format tables for plain text, in which small caps are shown as unmarked all upper-case. So, when aligning data in columns, do so without the small caps markups, and add them afterwards. Italics and bold are done differently and require extra planning, as later examples will show. Horizontal lines are represented with dashes (-), not with underscores (_). Vertical lines are represented with the pipe character (|). And, when lines meet or cross, we use a plus sign (+). That includes the corners, if there were side borders as well as top/bottom borders in the original image.
Plain text output
Below is how the markup above will appear in plain text.
