Hi Pavel,
I've found two errors in the documentation at
http://postgres.cz/wiki/Pretty_borders_in_psql

1)

The unicode-double5 style looks like:

x=# select * from t;
┌───┬───┬───┐
│ a │ b │ t │
╞═══╪═══╪═══╡
│ 1 │ 1 │ a │
├───┼───┼───┤
│ 2 │ 2 │ b │
├───┼───┼───┤
│ 3 │ 3 │ c │
└───┴───┴───┘
(3 rows)

(There are horizontal lines between rows)

2) There is no unicode-double6 in psql, however it exists on the website.

regards,
Szymon
