Okay, having fun! This seems like exactly what I was after. A couple of
things:

I've attached a patch replacing some [a-z] regexps with [:word:], so
that column names can be written in scripts other than ascii (my tables
above are actually all in Chinese). I hope that's acceptable.

I've changed blank fields to "0" so that I don't get the "NA" strings.

Now I'd like to do more calculations based on the rows in the sum(Chars)
and sum(Lines) columns.

Ideally I could add a fourth column to the aggregate table, calculated
from rows in the previous two. Is there any way to make a column
specification that refers to columns in the same table? The fourth
column would be defined as:

(sum(prod($2 0.7) prod($3 10))

Where $2 and $3 refer to cells in the aggregated table.

I made that up -- I don't even know if it's valid calc syntax. But
that's the idea. Or perhaps I should be making a third table based on
this second one?

Thanks again!

Eric
