Greetings. I wonder if = there's a way to tell Emacs to keep the "fences"
(vertical bars) in an e= xported, ASCII file. I.e., sometimes I'd like:

  &nb= sp; | Name | Phone | Age |
    |-------+-------+---= --|
    | Peter | 1234 | 17 |
  = | Anna | 4321 | 25 |

instead of:

&nb= sp;     Name    Phone   Age&nb= sp;
     -------+-------+-----
   = ;   Peter    1234    17
&= nbsp;     Anna     4321  = 25

Is there some way to do that?

I've tried:
    #+OPTIONS |:t
    #+OPTIONS ::t
    #+OPTIONS |:t ::t

but didn't notice any c= hange in the output.

Thanks,

-- Mike
