    regulartable(data, col_keys = names(data), cwidth = 0.75, cheight = 0.25)

`col_keys` | columns names/keys to display. If some column names are not in the dataset, they will be added as blank columns by default.

### Details

Most functions have an argument named `part` that will be used to specify what part of of the table should be modified.
