IIRC, that's specific to the markdown renderer. The default renderer (CommonMark) does not support tables.

I haven't looked into the other renderer options (sorry, on my phone) but one of them might.

Edit/redraft: sorry, I read your message again and you specified using markdown.pl.

Changing the markdown renderer to pandoc will generate a table.
