## Box-drawing
In terminal output, you can enable unicode box-drawing characters to
render prettier tables:
In terminal output, by default or with `--pretty=no`,
only ascii characters are used for drawing table borders.
- if the `--pretty` option is given a value of `yes` or `always`
(or `no` or `never`), unicode characters will (or will not) be used;
- otherwise, unicode characters will not be used.
With `--pretty` or `--pretty=yes`, unicode box-drawing characters are used instead.
Also, tables will have outer borders and inter-column borders.
To minimise the risk of display problems for new users, we don't enable this by default.
