rich_tools's Issues

Index values seem ignored

It seems the values I have in an index column are ignored:

print(etfs_df)

      shares
SCHA   396.08
SCHB   366.17
SCHE   357.92
SCHF  1008.04
SCHO   541.17
SCHX  1091.63
SCHZ   377.93

rich.print(df_to_table(etfs_df, index_name='ETF'))

┏━━━━━┳━━━━━━━━━┓
┃ ETF ┃ shares  ┃

│ 4   │ 541.17  │

Is there a way to fix this?

Make `rich_table` an optional parameter to the `df_to_table` function

Allow a user to pass a Table instance to the df_to_table if they want to, but return a fresh Table() by default so the user does not need to initiate a new instance to call the function.
