In this example the pattern of horizontal lines in the source is used to detect the table heading. Note that when the pattern of lines is understood, the lines themselves are omitted from the output. If they're not recognised then lines are shown in the output wherever they occur in the source.
Note, there is an error here in that the "For" column has been split into two "columns" with the second only containing "m" for "miles". This problem may be addressed in future versions by improving the algorithms to spot columns with all their values the same, or similar.
Note also that the "Check Access" cells have been marked in bold to match the emphasis placed on the original.
Finally, note that the vertical column separators "|" have been removed from the output text.
