Awesome Asciidoctor: Repeating Cell Contents
With Asciidoctor we can repeat cell contents if we prefix the cell separator pipe symbol (|) with the number of times we want to repeat the cell followed by an asterisk (*).
In the following example Asciidoctor source file we define two tables and add 2* to cells that we want to repeat two times:
// 3-column table, where the first column
// cell value is not repeated, and the
// cell value for columns 2 and 3 is
// repeated.
|===
| Column | Value | Value
