HPR3457: Tables

Summary: Mobile devices don't display them nicely. Most tables can be converted into a list: OSInitPkg Fedorasystemddnf SlackwareBSD-styleslackpkg GentooOpenRCemerge Can be represented as a list. In YAML terms, this is a sequence of mappings. Fedora Init system: systemd Package manager: dnf Slackware Init system: BSD-style Package manager: slackpkg Gentoo Init system: OpenRC Package manager: emerge A table doesn't always translate exactly to a list, but it probably can be restructured. OSOpen sourceLanded on Mars LinuxYesYes BSDYesNo macOSNoNo Could be written like this instead: Linux and BSD are open source operating systems, while macOS is not. Of these POSIX-compliant systems, only Linux has landed on Mars so far. That's pretty casual and loses the visual impact of a table or a list. So alternately, you could summarize what's common and highlight differences: There are a few Linux systems on Mars. Neither BSD or macOS have yet landed on Mars. Linux and BSD are both open source. macOS is based partially on open source and includes components from the BSD, KDE, GNU, and other projects.
