Subject: org-table-import fails with negative number
Date: Fri, 30 Oct 2009 20:35:03 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <878wesv1s8.fsf@stats.ox.ac.uk> (raw)

If a file contains "-1" followed by a newline and nothing else,
org-table-import on that file fails. The first commit with this property
is a commit (below) to do with CVS tables made a few days ago. I have
given up trying to work out a good solution to this :) In case it is
useful, the failure occurs when org-table-align is called at the end of
org-table-convert-region. I think it is long-standing behaviour that
hitting tab inside of
|-1|
doesn't make a table containing "-1", so presumably there is something
different about the context in which org-table-align is now being
called.

    Correctly interpret CVS tables with quoted fields
    
    The csv parser was very primitive, ignoring quoted fields.  This is
    now fixed.
