Dear all, 

I guess I found a bug in the export function of orgtbl to LaTeX: The 
percentage sign ("%") is not masked, it simply is transfered to LaTeX and thus 
destroys the table. Example below, beware, you will get an error, because of 
the said bug. 

For readers who are not familiar with LaTeX: "%" is the comment sign, after 
"%" LaTeX does not compile anything in this line. Here in the example the end 
of the current row is marked with "\\", but due to the "%" LaTeX can not find 
any eol. 

Can the export function be amended? Any "%" inside the table (!) needs to be 
exported as "\%".
