Support for Tablicious (tabular data strucutures)

[jose-matos]

I would like to help with support of Tablicious inside octave_kernel. Tablicious is a new package that is being developed to support table data structures for Octave: https://github.com/apjanke/octave-tablicious

In particular I would to work on the display of tables when using jupyter.

What would be the first place to start?

Hi @jose-matos, that is a tough one because we don't have a direct handle on the Octave objects from the kernel. What you could do is write an Octave function that checks the workspace for any table objects, creates an html output from them, and puts them in a directory. You would then extract the html output and display it from the kernel. This would parallel what we do for figures.
