Well, it is not really cool, but useful (at least it was for me :-p)

The SYNOPSIS demonstrates the main functionality:

use LaTeX::Table; my $data = [ [ 'Lisa', '0', '0' ], [ 'Marge', '0', '1' ], [ 'Wiggum', '0', '5' ], [ 'Otto', '1', '3' ], [ 'Homer', '2', '6' ], [ 'Barney', '8', '16' ], ]; my $header = [ [ 'Name', 'Beers:2|c|' ], [ '', 'before 4pm', 'afte +r 4pm' ] ]; my $table = LaTeX::Table->new( { filename => 'counter.tex', caption => 'Number of beers before and after 4pm +.', maincaption => 'Beer Counter', label => 'table_beercounter', theme => 'Houston', tablepos => 'htb', } ); $table->generate( $header, $data )
It supports multipage tables (e.g. for appendices) and some predefined good looking table themes. Some feedback is highly appreciated before putting it on CPAN.
