var table = new AsciiTableGenerator("A Title");
table.SetHeading("", "Name", "Age");
table.Add(1, "Bob", 52).Add(2, "John", 34).Add(3, "Jim", 83);
Console.Write(table.ToString());

Example 1 output:

.----------------.
|    A Title     |
|----------------|
|   | Name | Age |
|---|------|-----|
| 1 | Bob  |  52 |
| 2 | John |  34 |
| 3 | Jim  |  83 |

<a name="example-2">Example 2 - Populate table from enumerable</a>

class MyClass {
    public string Column1 { get; set; }
    public string Column2 { get; set; }
}
var items = new List<MyClass>
            {
                new MyClass { Column1 = "Bozo", Column2 = "TheClown" },
                new MyClass { Column1 = "Popeye", Column2 = "TheSailor" }
            };
var table = AsciiTableGenerator.FromEnumerable(items);
Console.Write(table.ToString());

Example 2 Output:
