## input is a comma-seperated multi-line segment
## ex:
## foo,bar,buzz,bazz,biff
## 1,2,3,4,5
## 6,7,8,9,10
##
##
## output is markdown-style table
##
## example:
## |foo|bar|buzz|bazz|biff|
## |---|---|---|---|---|
## |1|2|3|4|5|
## |6|7|8|9|10|

## doesn't care about right-aligned or centered, just does default. 
## Doesn't care about pretty.

The following:

foo,bar,buzz,bazz,biff
1,2,3,4,5
6,7,8,9,10

becomes:

|foo|bar|buzz|bazz|biff|
|---|---|---|---|---|
|1|2|3|4|5|
|6|7|8|9|10|

which renders as:

foo	bar	buzz	bazz	biff
1	2	3	4	5
6	7	8	9	10
