Yes. but someone looking around only in the Worg tutorial section
"Tables, Spreadsheet, Plotting" will not find it and also from the
link above the content I would like to point to is not to be expected
and is still a long way to go: two clicks on the right links and
browse to the right section. What I had in mind is something like the
attached patch for Worg as a suggestion. What do you think?
