By the time I arrived at the end of my message the question was vague -
very vague!
I have no trouble generating a table using the a src block from a
recutils file
#+Name: ATable
#+begin_src rec data: Foo.rec :type Bar :fields date,Description,Amount
#+end_src
#+TBLNAME: ATable
results in
#+Name: ATable
#+begin_src rec data: Foo.rec :type Bar :fields date,Description,Amount
#+end_src
#+TBLNAME: ATable
| date | Description | Amount |
|--------|-------------|--------|
| 6-7 | blah | 1.00 |
| 6-8 | blah blah | 2.00 |
Using code I would like to insert a row after the last row from the recutil file, put the word "Total" in the last cell in the "Description" column and in the last cell in the Amount column total the cells above.
From what I have read, I think source code at the beginning of the file would be possible and then that code would be called using the :post header command
the desired result is
#+Name: ATable
#+begin_src rec data: Foo.rec :type Bar :fields date,Description,Amount (possibly wiht :post *this*
#+end_src
#+TBLNAME: ATable
| date | Description | Amount |
|--------|-------------|--------|
| 6-7 | blah | 1.00 |
| 6-8 | blah blah | 2.00 |
| | Total | 3.00 |
I want to avoid using the keyboard to modify the table, i.e. go to last row, M-S-<down> to add a row, go to "Description" column last cell and insert Total and then evaluate a
#+TBLFM: @>$>=vsum(@I$>..@>>$>);%.2f
(Eventually there may be as many as twenty different tables; the above is the most simple type.)
My knowledge of emacs lisp is only enough to try to figure it out when I see the code; all other languages forget about it.
