formatted_lines

This returns a Module::Generic::Array object representing the lines of data properly formatted for this cell.

This method is only used for "as_markdown" method.

width

Sets or gets the width of the cell as an integer. The value is stored as a Module::Generic::Number object and it represents the number of characters, not the number of pixels. There are 8 pixels per character.

It is important that this value be set, or else, "formatted_lines" would not know how to align the cells content.
