Column view like in MC?

Midnight Commander has 2 panes, i.e. one of the panes looks like this:

Can you point me in the right direction which control I can use to implement this? ListView seems like it's for rendering a one-line item. And GridView requires DataGrid which I'd rather not use. Thanks!

You can just customize what gets drawn by the ListView so whatever you desire

Thank you! I'm manually printing vertical lines as a part of item rendering, looks fine so far:

In v2_develop I removed the coupling of TableView from DataTable. You can define your own columns with EnumerableTableSource<>. You can use the alpha nuget package or link the source repo directly for the latest changes.

	Application.Init ();
	var w = new Window ();

	var currentDir = new DirectoryInfo (Environment.CurrentDirectory);
	
	var fsi = currentDir.GetFileSystemInfos ();
	var source = new EnumerableTableSource<FileSystemInfo> (fsi,
		new Dictionary<string, Func<FileSystemInfo, object>> {
			{ "Name",(f)=>f.Name},
			{ "Size",(f)=>f is FileInfo fi ? fi.Length : ""},
			{ "Mod",(f)=>f.LastWriteTime},
		});

	var tv = new TableView (source) {
		Width = Dim.Fill (),
		Height = Dim.Fill ()
	};

	w.Add (tv);
	Application.Run (w);
	Application.Shutdown ();

You can even create a tree table (see OpenTreeExample in TableEditor example):

Thank you, i managed to do wht I wanted. This library is magic.
