I'd like to announce the release of version 0.4.0 of asciitable, an extensible module for reading and writing ASCII tables. This release adds the capability to handle bad or missing values in the input table. Thanks to Moritz Guenther for contributing this new feature. Please see: http://cxc.harvard.edu/contrib/asciitable/#replace-bad-or-missing-values Regards, Tom Aldcroft
