That just sounds like a table but with extra steps?

Are you saying that there is functionality called a `table` that I could use to give me similar results?

I don't need/want a fancy grid, I just make multi-columned lists a lot.

Another similar use-case: recipes!

    1cup    flour             extra fine/sifted  
    1tsp    vanilla           extract is fine
    1/4cup  something else    more cooking words

It's not a lot steps, but if there's a table function I could look into without creating a grid, I could probably use that.

There are plugins like improved tables ( https://github.com/tgrosinger/advanced-tables-obsidian ) which make markdown tables quicker to write up.

I use a table plugin for both phone and desktop. It's a little finicky on the phone, but doable.
