Subject: Export tables as matrices (change tbl-export function on the fly)
Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2012 15:49:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <877gpojl2s.fsf@pank.iue.private> (raw)

Hi,

I'm doing some stuff where the natural output of my tables are
matrices.  I found a decent translation  function here ¹.  However,
I'm not very successful in making org use it. 

I tried to add
#+begin_src org 
* heading
  :PROPERTIES:
  :TABLE_EXPORT_FORMAT: orgtbl-to-latex-matrix
  :END:
#+end src
to the relevant section of my document, but this does not seem to be
the correct usage. 

I also tried to radio tables.  The problem is that when I do

#+NAME: P
#+ORGTBL: SEND P orgtbl-to-latex-matrix
|1|

I cannot send P to R/Octave.  When I swap the ORGTBL and NAME around,
I can't send it to a radio table.  I also tried with TBLNAME. 

Anyway, the optimal would be to have Org just use a different
translation mechanism on the fly.  Is that possible?

Thanks,
Rasmus
