Do we need this class? Can't we just merge it with ColumnPrinter?

TablePrinter
and WrappedPrinter
inherit from Printer
as well.
All three subclasses implement the print
method in their own way.

Can't we change them to inherit from ColumnPrinter
?

I'm asking this because Printer doesn't have the same interface as their subclasses so it is breaking the Liskov substitution principle, and I see no reason to break that.

Done.
The printing methods are already pretty large, making it difficult to add extra functionality. Extracting them to seperate classes allows refactoring them for easier maintainability. A lot of the functionality of calculating the terminal width can be extracted to a separate object as well.

The newest Thor also contains a Terminal module, causing "uninitialized constant Thor::Shell::Terminal::Table (NameError)"
