Hello
I think that one could "solve" the hebrew problem I mentioned yesterday,
if there were a function like org-table-reverse-column
(or org-table-reverse-row)
acting like reverse-region but just for columns or rows.
Unfortunately there is no function as reverse-rectangle or something
like this to start with.
Anybody has an idea?
Thanks

This again I see in the category of "fun with combinations of
reverse-region (to reverse lines) and org-table-transpose-table":
Reverse row(s): Isolate the row(s) by adding an empty line before and
after, transpose, reverse, transpose, remove added empty lines.
Reverse column(s): Transpose the whole table before and after the
steps above.

Maybe.

Aha by empty lines you really mean empty lines, not empty table lines?
That indeed works!
I transposed the table, kill the rectangular with the column I wanted to
reverse, yanked it and then applied reverse-region. Your idea is much
better.
To wrap it into a function seems not that trivial. However a
keyboard macro works just fine and is the poor's man solution to it.
Thanks.
