It also supports highlighting a specific item by passing the number to highlight either as a decimal of a hexadecimal number.
You can also control the style of the table with the following options
--style = The style of the text
--title-style = The style of the table title
--header-style = The style of the table header
--highlight-style = The style of the highlighted row
See the Rich dcoumentation for details on how to specify a style.
Uses the rich library for the fancy table formattting.
The aliases are taken from the NameAliases.txt
