Thanks for your feedback Alvaro. Taking a look at this with fresh
eyes, I realised it was daft to pass the encoding to each AddHeader
and AddCell call, since the encoding isn't going to change between
cells.

Instead I put a pointer to a printTableOpt inside the
printTableContent. The Opt struct contains the encoding and the Add
functions refer to the encoding internally when adding items. This
also has the benefit that you don't need to pass a printTableOpt
separately to the functions that actually do the printing.

Per your suggestion, I fleshed out the comments on translation, in
particular explaining why AddHeader and AddCell have an option for
translation but AddFooter does not.

The second version of the patch is attached.

Now my question is, how do I indicate that a second version of the
patch has been submitted on the wiki? Should I leave the primary link
pointing at the original submission, or update it to point at this
message?

Cheers,
BJ
