        print_table(Data,[b,c,a],_{b:_{align:right,format:"~2f"}},"Table",mysql,30).

%       Table (3 records)
%      +-------+----+----+
%      |   b   | c  | a  |
%      +-------+----+----+
%      |  0.00 | 13 | 11 |
%      |  2.12 | 23 | 21 |
%      | 12.11 | 33 | 31 |
%      +-------+----+----+

?- Data = [_{bla:"bla, bla, bla",duh:"duh!",ehm:"ehm..."},_{bla:"bladibla",duh:"di di duh",ehm:"ehmmmm ehhhhmmmm"}],
                        print_table(Data,[ehm,bla,duh],_{},"Table",unicode,40).

Related and Issues

Similar to print_table, the pack clitable (see https://www.swi-prolog.org/pack/list?p=clitable) allows for pretty printing a Table structure. However, it doesn't format the table within the available space.

The performace is influenced by the number of rows in the table.
