libfort has a number of builtin border styles. To change border style of libfort tables one can use ft_set_default_border_style, ft_set_border_style functions:

/* Change border style of all libfort tables that will be created */
int ft_set_default_border_style(const struct ft_border_style *style);
/* Change border style of a particular table */
int ft_set_border_style(ft_table_t *table, const struct ft_border_style *style);

Here is a simple example of creating table and setting border style:

ft_table_t *table = ft_create_table();   
/* Set border style */
ft_set_border_style(table, FT_BASIC_STYLE);
                                       
ft_set_cell_option(table, FT_ANY_ROW, 0, FT_COPT_TEXT_ALIGN, FT_ALIGNED_CENTER);
ft_set_cell_option(table, FT_ANY_ROW, 1, FT_COPT_TEXT_ALIGN, FT_ALIGNED_LEFT);  
                                                                                
ft_set_cell_option(table, 0, FT_ANY_COLUMN, FT_COPT_ROW_TYPE, FT_ROW_HEADER);   
ft_write_ln(table, "Rank", "Title", "Year", "Rating");                          
                                                                                
ft_write_ln(table, "1", "The Shawshank Redemption", "1994", "9.5");             
ft_write_ln(table, "2", "12 Angry Men", "1957", "8.8");                         
ft_write_ln(table, "3", "It's a Wonderful Life", "1946", "8.6");                
ft_add_separator(table);                                                        
ft_write_ln(table, "4", "2001: A Space Odyssey", "1968", "8.5");                
ft_write_ln(table, "5", "Blade Runner", "1982", "8.1");   

printf("%s\n", ft_to_string(table));
ft_destroy_table(table);
