Subject: Re: Adding new table rows/cols in a formula update
Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2014 19:54:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b55187e5ceb54158a4574539559abb04@fcmailsvr2.familycareinc.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87fvf8hpqw.fsf@secretsauce.net>

I would include a customization variable to control this behavior, defaulting to whatever the current behavior is:
IE:
(setq org-calc-extend-file nil) default system behavior
(setq org-calc-extend-file t) always silently extend rows
(setq org-calc-extend-file "warn") issue warning in message buffer that line was extended
(setq org-calc-extend-file "prompt") prompt user y/n on whether or not to extend column
