To edit them, I use 'C-c `' to get the full text in a separate buffer, which works fine, especially together with 'longlines-mode'. However, browsing the table contents is very cumbersome, so I am wondering if there is any way to make the 'org-table-edit-field' to be permanently visible in a buffer, automatically updating while moving around in the table to view the full content of the current cell? Similar to the way BBDB pops up and shows the sender in a separate buffer, if known. Any help and ideas appreciated! Thanks! -- Johnny
