Documentation

Like delete-char, but insert whitespace at field end in tables.

When deleting characters, in tables this function will insert whitespace in front of the next "|" separator, to keep the table aligned. The table will still be marked for re-alignment if the field did fill the entire column, because, in this case the deletion might narrow the column.
