Option to wrap an outline around the entire table.
The opt_table_outline() method puts an outline of consistent style=, width=, and color= around the entire table. It’ll write over any existing outside lines so long as the width= value is larger that of the existing lines. The default value of style= ("solid") will draw a solid outline, whereas using "none" will remove any present outline.
Parameters

Examples
Using select columns from the exibble dataset, let’s create a table with a number of components added. Following that, we’ll put an outline around the entire table using the opt_table_outline() method.
from great_tables import GT, exibble, md( GT( exibble[["num", "char", "currency", "row", "group"]], rowname_col="row", groupname_col="group" ) .tab_header( title=md("Data listing from **exibble**"), subtitle=md("`exibble` is a **Great Tables** dataset.") ) .fmt_number(columns="num") .fmt_currency(columns="currency") .tab_source_note(source_note="This is only a subset of the dataset.") .opt_table_outline())
