For a table the entry header is followed by a list of headers for the individual table columns, a single table header line consisting of (abbreviations of) the table entry identifiers and the table itself (see the example in section 4.2). The dimension keyword gives the number of columns and rows in the form ``d=(1:columns,1:rows)''.
The Holweger-Müller-Atmosphere is chosen as the following ``real world'' example for a file with a table in UIO format:
