Hi List,

I am trying to include to include a table with multi line cells in an org
file and found out from the manual that it has to be a table.el table. I
also read that those tables cannot be edited in org-mode directly, so I am
trying to use C-c ' to edit them. I was expecting, because of the wording
of the manual, that this would bring the whole table into a new buffer, as
it does for code snippets, but instead, what I get is a formula editor. Is
this normal?

What I have done so far is to create a new file myself, copy the table
over, edit there and copy back to org file, but it seems like there should
be an easier way to go about this. Is there one?

Thanks for this amazing piece of software that has made this hardcore vim
user for 10 years start using emacs :)
