#
#  showtbl(title, tbl, sort_type, limit, sort_order, posit,
#    w1, w2, gutter, f1, f2) displays tbl according to the arguments given.
#
#  The arguments are:
#
#  position	name		meaning			default/alternative
#
#     1		title		heading title		""
#     2		tbl		table to be shown
#     3		sort_type	type of sorting		"ref"/"val"
#     4		limit		lines of table output	essentially infinite
#     5		sort_order	increasing/decreasing	"incr"/"decr"
#     6		posit		first column		"val"/"ref"
#     7		w1		width of 1st column	10
#     8		w2		width of 2nd column	10
#     9		gutter		width between columns	3
#    10		f1		function of 1st column	left
#    11		f2		function of 2nd column	right
#
#  showtbl() returns a record with the first element being a count of
#  the size of the table and the second element the number of lines
#  written.

#  This procedure just grew.  It needs rewriting.
#  And it has far too manmy arguments.
#

#
#  Deficiencies:  Several features are not yet implemented.  sort_order
#                 and posit have no effect.  In the case of sort_type
#                 "val", the sorting order is decreasing.
