It's very troublesome for me to draw even one using the soft keyboard in Notepad. In the era when only the area code could be used, did it take several hours to draw a table?

It is estimated that it will be fast once you get familiar with it. Each time it is based on the previous one, not repeating the same difficulty completely each time. So professional wages are high, right?

The keyboard is another kind of finger. Using fingers and using a mouse are not at the same level. Generally, people who are familiar with the keyboard have an input speed of 200 to 300 characters, and they basically have the feeling of the keys and fingers being one. Professionals making tables only have the thought of quickly completing the work, different from the mentality of trying, and they have to finish quickly to get off work.

Making tables under DOS is indispensable. The quick calling of the overall format of information is needed for life, study, work and entertainment.

Tables can be set with limits for automatic extension. For example, entering a vertical line and then adding a number is to continue how many vertical lines, and there are commands for direction, continuous lines downward or making vertical lines according to specified parameters, connecting vertical lines and solid vertical lines, using all DOS command lines without using additional software.

The input method needs to have three parts: text language category, line and stop character category, and graphic table form category.
