+Note:  Pandoc also recognizes pipe tables of the following
+form, as can produced by Emacs' orgtbl-mode:
+
+    | One | Two   |
+    |-----+-------|
+    | my  | table |
+    | is  | nice  |

+The difference is that `+` is used instead of `|`. Other orgtbl features
+are not supported. In particular, to get non-default column alignment,
+you'll need to add colons as above.
